Velorution

It's a shame about some of the very old negative reviews here - it's under new ownership since then. I've been in three times and bought a bike with my wife and have had great service every time.

A fine selection of bikes, particularly folding and city bikes, foot-bikes, all the favourite brands. Staff are friendly and knowledgable - 5 stars!

I remember when they opened - and it feels they have a better selection now- it is a great range of bikes and gear (which is why it gets 2 stars). Somewhat of a price premium (the two bikes I looked at were both 15% higher than other places). I needed to buy a new commuter/hybrid ideally that day (Monday Aug 28th) and was ready to pay the premium but the 3 guys behind the counter didn't even say hello or look up. I was in there for 5 min with my wife and kids and finally walked out. Bought the bike at another small outfit in Exmouth market.

I had a good look around various places, online and in store before purchasing two bikes and was impressed with their pricing and more so availability at what I was looking for.

Evans and the like do have more bikes, but they are a bit same-same with no difference in pricing.

The store itself is very well presented and they cater for a wide range of prices from about £400 up to the £000's. All the staff I met are very courteous, knowledgeable people who also have their own opinions about various products and aren't at all one-directional minded (say, like in an Apple store).

Their 0% finance was also really quick to set up and useful as was purchasing two bicycles with accessories and what-not.

Highly recommend visiting and trying out the various models of bikes, you'll probably end up walking out with one.

Fantastic quirky 🚲 shop stocking some very unusual 🚲's & you can even grab a decent ☕️ while browsing😜

I'm giving this place 5 stars purely because the name is absolutely inspired.

Pretty bad attitude and only offer servicing on the bikes they sell

A funky urban orientated bike shop full of interesting goodies. As overseas visitors we stumbled across this shop in our 'visit bike shops' expedition. The customer service was exceptional and very friendly. Would love to revisit and try an electric bike but our plane leaves today.

Small store with a fine selection of great bikes and accessories. Highly competent and friendly service (thanks Steve!). Bought my new Brompton today and felt very well adviced by the staff - unlike in Evans bikes which is just around the corner and which I left after wasting 1 hour of my time.

Velorution have a great selection of bikes, mainly sourced from smaller independent brands. The shop is like a gallery and so worth visiting even if just to have a cup of tea and admire!
I'm surprised at some of the comments below as I loved the service and advice I was given. I haven't cycled in years but after borrowing different bikes and speaking to the guys I settled for what has quickly become my most prized possession. It fits me perfectly and no doubt will give me many years of joy.

Overall 5/5. Thanks.

To add: they have a great blog. Worth checking out.
