ACE CYCLE

Bike Repair & Tune-Ups in Tavistock

I focus on proper cleaning, adjustments, and real results.
Fast turnaround, all done with a personal touch.

How My Service Works

Most bike issues aren’t major mechanical failures—they come from dirt, buildup, and lack of lubrication.

At ACE Cycle, I focus on what actually makes a difference:

• Thorough cleaning of key components

• Proper lubrication of moving parts

• Careful adjustment of brakes and shifting

  
  

A clean, properly lubricated drivetrain can dramatically improve:

• Shifting performance

• Brake feel

• Overall ride quality

This is why many bikes feel “like new” after a proper service.

About Us

ACE Cycle started from helping family and neighbours with their bikes and just grew from there.

With years of hands-on experience, Dave started ACE Cycle to give people in Tavistock a simple, local option for tune-ups and repairs—without the drive into the city or the long wait times at bike shops.

Operating out of a home-based garage, everything is done with attention to detail, quick turnaround, and honest service.

A big focus of the work is proper cleaning and care. A lot of bikes don’t actually need major repairs—just a good clean, lubrication, and adjustment. That alone can make a huge difference in how a bike rides, shifts, and feels.

If your bike isn’t shifting right, brakes aren’t working as they should, or it just feels off, it can usually be brought back with the right service.

Why Choose ACE Cycle?

Unlike larger shops where bikes are often processed quickly, I take the time to:

• Properly clean and restore performance

• Give each bike individual attention

• Make honest, straightforward recommendations

My goal is simple:

Get your bike running smoothly, safely, and reliably—without overcharging or overcomplicating things.
