We've not long moved near to St Ives, in Cambridgshire, and I'm after a recommendation for a decent bike shop to do a service on my GF's road bike. I did offer to do it, but she's after paying someone to do it 'properly'! 🙂 Any recommendations? I'm happy to travel to Huntingdon or Cambridge, for a decent job.

Ben Hayward's in cambs is good - http://www.benhaywardcycles.co.uk/

Had some bad experiences from Richardson's in Huntingdon.

Rutland's in Grafam have lots of nice bits, never used the mechanics.

A big +1 for C6, the lads there know their stuff and have a good selection of shiny things. The same with Rutland Cycles out at Grafham too. Their techs are pretty good (serviced my Stumpy a while back and did a decent job of it.

If you want just servicing, Paul from what used to be Massif in Cambourne is still doing things I believe. He's in Cambourne and collected my road bike the last time I had it serviced. PM me if you'd like his number.
