Bike Advice

The nice thing about bikes is that no matter how complicated they look, they're actually very simple machines.

Here at Oxford Cycle Workshop we're keen to empower you with  the knowledge to understand your bike. So this guide is here to set the wheels rolling in your quest to either understand the one you love (your bike that is), or alternatively aid you in finding the right bicycle match for you.

These pages are home to simple information on a range of topics. From satisfying curiosities about what 'that bike bit' is called and how you know if it's not working properly, right the way through to enquiries about where in Oxford you could learn to build a wheel, and a whole lot in between. What is the right choice with locks is a good example of the kind of regular question we're going to seek to answer, along with giving you equally good advice on the best way to lock your bike up once you've got the perfect lock.
