EC Cycles is a bike workshop at 139 Sunnybrae Road in Hillcrest, on the North Shore. The website says it has moved to a new, improved location with parking right in front. The workshop hand-builds every wheel, and can build a new bike, upgrade an existing one, or fit a new groupset. Servicing is offered for major suspension brands, and the business offers bike fitting, which takes saddle height, reach, cleat position and handlebar controls into account. Base service prices as at 2026 start at $120 for road bikes, $140 for off-road and e-bikes, and $160 for eMTBs. These prices exclude parts. A drivetrain clean in the parts washer is $40 as at 2026, and a full clean is $80 as at 2026.
Reviewers describe the staff as knowledgeable, kind and approachable, and mention knowledgeable staff most often. One customer calls the staff expert and trustworthy, and says it is the best bike shop in Auckland. Another's bike came back working perfectly after a minor accident, with a quick turnaround and a very reasonable cost. A third says the brake repair was done well.
