Bike service
We service bicycles of all brands, models and price ranges. Whether you’re riding a mass-produced city bike, a mountain bike that will endure the toughest challenges in the woods or a specially built road racer for super-fast races, we give your bike the same careful overhaul and service. Kevin will lubricate, adjust and tune your bike to suit your needs and desires.
If your bike is to be riden for many years it will require a dose of love, much care and regular maintenance. A preventive maintenance make the parts work well with each other and the bike will last a long time. You will also avoid any unnecessary accidents, damages and stops. A well lubricated and serviced bike will perform better and ride safer throughout the course of it’s life.
When to service your bike?
Prevention is always better than cure, and when it comes to your bike, there are some simple things you can keep track of every time you ride. An early checkup can extend the time until the next major repair. Keep a heads-up for these signs:
- A squeaking chain is a sign of inadequate lubrication.
- If the chain jumps off the train it needs to be adjusted or it could be worn and need replacing.
- Squeaking, screaming or jumping gears need an overhaul.
- The brakes should work smoothly, with just an easy pinch on the lever or the pedals.
- All wobbeling, squeaking and creaking should be investigated and addressed early.
These are clear signs that your bike needs a portion of love and maintenance. When we are done with the bike we complete a report, in which you can read about the measures we have taken and if we have found any discrepancies.
My bike is broken?
When we do regular maintenance on your bike, we can also repair or replace broken parts – if you want us to. Please observe that Kevin will not take any action on your bike until you agree on what to do and what it will cost. Repairs and spare parts are not included in the fixed price for maintenance service. Read more on Bicycle repairs.
Hero bike service
We have developed a perfect Hero bike service for all who commute via bicycle and only expose it to normal use. We guess that you use your robust city bike to take you conveniently to work or school and home again and sometimes use it for a nice Sunday ride.
You never do tricks at the action park, caress the asphalt in preparation for Tour de France or push your mountain bike to it’s limits in the woodland trails – right? Bike parkour and riding downhill is not your thing!
We recommend that you do a Hero bike service at least once a year or every 3000 kilometers. If you only use your bike during the summer months, it is appropriate to conduct a maintenance service in the early spring. That way your bike will be ready when you are going to hit the road again.

Superhero bike service
This is a bike service for you who use your bike a little more, a little tougher and a little rougher than others. We believe you can do a hundred bunnyhops on the spot, think Tour de France is the most exciting race Lance Armstrong never won and have a helmet that sits tighter on your head than a knitted cap. Right?
We believe that you ride almost every day, driving long distances on weekends and exercise your bike regularly in tougher terrain. You are in your own element when you feel the sweet smell of asphalt in the morning or sqeeze the sweat from your forehead on a muddy path in the woods. For you, a bicycle is more than a means of transportation – it’s your passion!
We recommend that you do a Superhero bike service at least once a year or after 6000 kilometers. A good solution for you who ride in the winters and have high demands on your bike is to book a Superhero bike service in the fall and supplement it with a regular Hero service in the spring.

Kevin Special
If you break the speed limit on your racing bike, love bike parkour and see yourself as a master of bunny-hoping you also have high expectations on your bike’s performances. Tough challenges, high load and intensive use requires thorough maintenance of the entire bicycle at frequent intervals.
A staircase is not an obstacle, only a challenge. A narrow bridge is exciting and a puddle of mud an excuse for practicing. Since you ride in all weathers your bike needs even more love, care and service. For you, the bicycle is more than a means for transportation – it’s a lifestyle!
If you recognize yourself in this description, we recommend that you book a Kevin’s Special maintenance service at least every two months or after 2000 kilometers.
