If you're going to live or study in Cambridge you're going to need a bike to get around. This small…read moreindependent shop, tucked away in a side alley only a short walk from the city centre, has a good selection of new and second-hand bike on offer at very reasonable prices. They also have a good selection of accessories such as baskets, lights, locks and helmets for sale, again at good value for money. The guys that run the shop are very knowledgeable about all cycle-related matters. They are happy to install extras (such as lights and locks) without charging extra for the labour and carry out repairs reliably and promptly.

This is the best cycle shop in Cambridge, without doubt. All the staff are very polite and know…read morewhat they're doing, and you're bike is fixed within a day. They've fixed so many minor things for free that I've lost count! That's why I don't mind paying out for the bigger things such as annual services and tyre changes because they're that good - and I buy all my accessories from there too! Because I am useless with bikes they always oil the chain for me and pump the tyres up for free, so I make sure to donate some money to the charity box they have in the shop - I think it's a fair exchange!

Very few of these places left now. Never had a bad…read moreexperience here in the many years they have been looking after my bikes. They are by no means the cheapest but you get what you pay for! Thanks Guys

Other bike shops give me discount, even so I would always go here first! They really are fab! Good honest advice!! I have been there a few times for many issues, and they have always been amazing, they really do have the best customer service and are so patient with little ones who ask questions, even when they are busy they really don't rush you, your your bike!!

There are a host of cycle shops in Cambridge, each vying for your attention and cash. When I first…read moremoved to the city, I did a tour of them in my search for two-wheeled transportation. By far the most friendly, helpful and knowledgeable staff were the people who ran this joint. You can read their passion for bikes immediately - it is written all over their greasy hands and their open smiles. And you can pick up a reliable bike at a reasonable price, which is, after all, the Holy Grail in Cambridge.

They sell parts and accessories too as well as new bikes including Raleigh. The shop is a bit of a Tardis you need to go inside to appreciate just how much stuff is there. They also cut keys. Website is worth a visit too gives a bit of background. Why 4 stars? They shut at 4.00 pm apparently they are going to change in the future so will give them the extra star if and when they extend opening hours as this is my only quibble!

They are friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. I had a repair done at another shop and it never quite got sorted correctly. I found Stort Valley Cycle and they sorted it the first time and the gears have been smooth ever since! The last time I needed something done, I was in a huge time crunch and I was apologetic to the staff, but needed something down quickly before going out of town. They sorted the bike out quicker than expected and I had time to spare! Well done guys!!

My family has been using this fabulous bike shop for years and have nothing but good words to say about the proprietor, Colin, and the service he provides. Colin clearly takes great pride in his work and has built-up a huge network of regulars. His prices are incredibly reasonable and he's the most honest guy you'll ever do business with. In a city renowned for its bike repair cowboys, it's so refreshing to find a decent, hardworking expert who really knows and cares about bikes - and his customers. Which is why we keep coming back and will continue to do so.

Upon arrival, i was a novice cycler, and had not tried to bike for a great many years. He knew exactly which cycle was for me, which one was perfect for my partner, and fitted us with seats, locks, and child seats for an extremely reasonable price. The best part is - free tune-ups and quick fixes! Inevitably, your bicycle will need some TLC, just bring it back by the shop and Colin fixes it fast and free of charge. It's really comforting to know that businesses like this still exist in the world. If you need a bicycle, enjoy getting a good deal, prefer small businesses, and like fast and friendly service, head to University Cycle. If you don't like those things, well then that's you I guess.

The prices to buy are very reasonable and if you want to hire you can get a bike for the day from about £7 to £10. They also stock a heap of accessories including helmets, tag-a-longs, and wheels etc etc and these can be hired too.

So whether you want to explore Felixstowe for the day or fix a flat tire, Flynnstar Bicycles will take care of you.
