On the last day of our April cruise we passed Brass Farthing on the GU near Calcutt.
It had lots of bicycles on it and and on the towpath beside it. I have just looked it up, and discovered it is a floating bike repair shop (with a plug on Waterscape), handy if your bike tyre has just been skewered by one of the many thorns that litter the towpath.
As well as repairs Graham will rebuild your bike. His website is excellent, and tells you exactly how much he charges for fitting a tyre and inner tube (£2) right up to a full service (£45). There are sections on electric bikes and Bromptons too. (info from his website).
If you've ever wondered about an electrically assisted bicycle, then read Graham's account of his experience with a "budget" (£500) electric power pack.
