Clydebank, since 1998

A proper Clydebank bike shop, whatever you ride.

Commuter bikes, gravel and road builds, and adaptive cycling for disabled riders. Three worlds on one shop floor at 14 Kilbowie Road, built properly by folk who know what they are doing.

Urban

Get to work. Get sorted.

Commuter bikes, locks, lights, helmets and panniers at clear prices. Servicing from £25, walk-ins welcome, Cycle to Work, and bulk orders for councils and hire schemes.

Shop, book a service, or enquire

Gravel

Build it once. Build it right.

Around a dozen frame and build options, componentry add-ons, and staff who ride. Talk through groupsets and geometry in a one-hour build consultation, in the shop or on a call.

Build consultations: ask in the shop

Adaptive

Yes, we can help someone like you.

Trikes and adapted bikes for children and adults, each one fitted to the rider. We work with families, therapists, schools and charities, and we help find a funding route.

Our story

Started with shipyard redundancy money. Still building things properly by hand.

Iain opened Clydebank Cycles in 1998 with the redundancy money from the shipyard. The idea was not complicated: do the work properly, by hand, for anyone who walks through the door.

That is still the whole idea. A daily commuter, a rider chasing a custom gravel build, a child who needs a bike adapted so they can ride with their pals: same shop floor, same standard. It is how a working town has always made things, and it is how we make ours.

Three worlds, one family, one shop floor.

Who works on your bike

Every mechanic here is Cytech trained. No exceptions.

Cytech is the industry's recognised training and accreditation for bike mechanics. Every person who picks up a spanner in this workshop has it. That is not a nice-to-have, it is the rule.

It matters most where the stakes are highest: a commuter's brakes in the rain, a gravel build under load on a descent, an adapted trike that has to be right for the rider every single time.
