Mobile mechanics

This service is now run by Oxford Mobile Cycle Repairs Ltd, due to Oxford Cycle Workshop ceasing trading, see closure of OCW on this page for more details.

Getting important repairs carried out on your bike if you've got a 9 to 5 job can be difficult when we open 9.30 until 6 on week days*.

Offering employers opportunities to support their staff in cycling to work is a really important project for us and our mobile mechanic is a key part of the support we offer.

Totally pedal powered, and fully equipped to carry out most repairs, our mobile mechanics can be booked for one off events, pool bike fleet maintenance or used to establish a weekly on site bike fix surgery for you workforce.

Oxford University On-site Mechanics

The University Club - Our regular Wednesday mobile mechanic for Oxford University staff operates out of the bike sheds at The University Club throughout the year come rain or shine. Arrive at 10am to avoid disappointment as this service is a popular one.

Churchill - Our regular Friday mobile mechanic for Oxford University staff who work at the Churchill Hospital site. This mobile mechanic sevice operates near the bike sheds at the heart of the site.

WIMM -This one takes place just outside the reception door of the Weatherall Institute of Molecular Medicine every 3 weeks. Contact Linda Barlow on reception to find out when the next visit is planned and to book a place.

Brookes University On-site Mechanics

Gipsy Lane Campus - Term time Tuesdays between 10am and 2pm one of our mobile mechanics will be available to not only fix your bike, but also offer you advice or sell you spare parts at the bike sheds of the sports centre of the Gipsy Lane Campus. This has moved from near the Gibbs building due to building works. We strongly advise being available at 10am to book your bike in for any repair work needed to avoid disappointment.
