Good price and quick delivery

Oskar was very helpful

Great service, super quick turnaround from ordering, to getting in touch to let me know what’s going on, then straight out the door shipping.

Purchased a Cannondale Supersix 2, very competitive on price, but what really stood out was the quality of the service on the phone. I was able to speak to a "human" quickly and they were really accommodating with my questions and suspending delivery for a day, was just an easy verbal request. With the ongoing AI and digitisation of companies ever pursuing cost cutting it's refreshing to deal with a company thats treats customer service as a integral part of their offer. I will not hesitate to use Wheelbase again.

Quality product Very helpful knowledgeable staff

The products can be purchased elsewhere, but the level of service and time a guy named Luke spent with me , going over the bike fully and finishing the setting up was amazing , in a professional and very polite manner I would definitely recommend the business to anyone , great job and thank you Luke

Knowledgeable, friendly staff who couldn’t do enough to help.

They have all the equipment needed for our cycling wants under one roof. Everything is of excellent quality and there is plenty of choice. All the staff are very welcoming, knowledgeable and friendly, nothing is too much for them.

Easy to navigate 👍

I recently purchased a bike, and Wheelbase was the perfect place to get advice and choose the right one for me. The staff were consistently friendly, knowledgeable, and straight to the point, making the whole process smooth and enjoyable. I’d definitely recommend them to anyone looking to buy a bike and get expert guidance.

Great staff and friendly

Great service, always offer options and get the job done on time

Very helpful and go the extra mile.

The service team were friendly and supportive from the off. They listened to what we required and met our service needs full, efficiently and at really good cost (which was a lovely surprise!). We met the mechanic personally and he was incredibly knowledgeable and enthusiastic about bikes, which is what you want in a mechanic. Communication was good throughout.

Expert advice, great bikes, special deals. Bernie was very helpful , setting up bike perfectly for me

Nice friendly services and staff happy to discuss different components of the bike and freely give maintenance advice

The staff at wheelbase couldn't be more helpful. I wasn't sure what type of bike I wanted but after a good chat and a few test rides I found the perfect bike. No pressure and lots of help I couldn't be happier with wheelbase Ilkley.

Excellent bike service. Everything clearly identified and done to a very good standard. The gentlemen who work there are very lovely and knowledgable. I would not hesitate to go back.

The lads are always friendly and very knowledgeable about the product

I had a problem with a stuck compression bung on a bike I bought from another retailer. The team got it looked at quickly, new part ordered and fixed in a short amount of time. Graeme was great over the phone and a pleasure to meet in the store; the workshop team did a great job.

After weeks of trying to get the right parts for my rear Bontrager wheel I gave up and dropped it off at Wheelbase Darlington. They managed to source the correct parts, assemble them and have the wheel ready to go. Great service and speedy too.

Great bike recommendation and fantastic service, thank you! Took the new bike for its first spin at Hamsterley today and it was a dream.
