Cycled is a bicycle servicing studio at 3 Kensington Avenue in Petone, Lower Hutt. The entrance is down the drive at the side. The studio focuses on servicing, repairs and refurbishing used bikes, with a little retail, and welcomes all levels of bikes and riders. The website lists on-the-spot repairs, a minimum charge, and a range of Shimano groupsets, tyres and cassettes. It also restores retro mountain bikes, which are shown in a display.
Refurbished bikes are sold in condition grades 8 to 10, and used bikes in grades 5 to 7. Both come with a free service within 12 months and a one-year warranty. Bike racks bought here are assembled and fitted free, and can be collected from the Petone studio. Customers say the staff are knowledgeable. One who had two bikes bought in 2020 that had not been serviced since says they were fixed within a week, for a reasonable fee. Another had wheelchair tyres fitted at short notice, and communication is praised. Our pick in Petone for a bike that needs a service or a repair.
