About ER Cycles

ER Cycles is an independent bike servicing business on Allister Ave in Halswell, Christchurch, that works on mountain, road, gravel and e-bikes. It does not sell bikes. The work listed on its website is fork and shock servicing, brake service and bleeding, bearing and headset service, derailleur strip-downs, wheel truing and custom builds. Pick-up and drop-off from home or work is available by arrangement. Prices are labour only, so parts and fluids are extra: a brake service and bleed starts at $35 per brake (as at 2026), and e-bike jobs carry a 10 per cent surcharge.

Customers praise the fast turnaround, fair prices and the detailed service report that comes with each job. One rider had two road bike jobs done and said the service was quick and the price good. Another, on holiday in New Zealand when their bike broke down, says the mechanic went out of his way to get them back on the road. The website says excessively dirty bikes can attract a cleaning fee. Nearby, Pushbikes Papanui is 0.9 km away with 4.7 from 387 reviews, and of the two bike shops within a kilometre with ten or more reviews, neither rates higher than this one.
