January 2026 The current workshop
Now based at 39 Eastbourne Road, Pevensey Bay, the workshop is properly equipped for everything from a basic service to full drivetrain rebuilds and e-bike diagnostics. Quick turnaround, honest pricing, no shortcuts.
2024 Eastbourne Cycles
Eastbourne Cycles launched as a focused servicing and repair business. All the supplier relationships from the previous decade were retained: Bosch, Shimano, Yamaha, and GoCycle. The expertise stayed.
2019 Pevensey Bay
In October 2019 the business moved to a larger, higher-profile premises at Anderida on Wallsend Road in Pevensey Bay, more space, better parking, a stronger presence. A few months later, lockdown arrived. For a period, demand was extraordinary: four people working full time, bikes flying out the door. Parts dried up, supply collapsed, and by the end of 2020 it was back to two.
2014 First workshop
By 2014, operations moved into The Drill Hall at Westham, a proper base to sell new bikes from Orbea, Merida and Raleigh, alongside used stock. Cycle Tech Eastbourne became a Limited Company that year, and also joined the Cycle to Work Scheme. It was here that Guy worked alongside Bartek, a skilled mechanic who sharpened the workshop's standards considerably.
2012 Starting out
It started with a Renault Master van packed with tools and bike parts. Guy offered mobile bike servicing across the area and ran a pop-up repair shop at Langney Market twice a week, alongside a small selection of used bikes for sale.
2021–2023 E-bikes & a change of direction
From 2021, the focus shifted to electric bikes, Haibike, Lapierre and Raleigh. But by 2023 it was clear that e-bike retail wasn't sustainable: online discounting had driven prices below wholesale. In October 2023, Cycle Tech Eastbourne Ltd closed. A deliberate reset.
02 / The story
The Story
Eastbourne Cycles is a one-man operation and that's deliberate. Every bike that comes through the door is handled personally, assessed honestly, and returned in better condition than it arrived. Here's how we got here.

03 / The Used Bikes
Used bikes
always part of the story
From day one, used bikes have been part of what we do. Every bike sold has been fully serviced before it leaves the workshop and comes with a 3-month fair use warranty. Customers regularly ask if they're new. They're not, they're just prepared properly.
Honest
assessment
We'll tell you what your bike actually needs. Nothing more.
Proper
work
Every job is done to the same standard, regardless of the bike's value.
Direct
communication
You deal with the mechanic, not a receptionist. Always.
04 / Why it matters
What you can
expect
05 / Get in Touch
Got a bike that
needs sorting?
Quick message or WhatsApp - whichever's easier. We'll come back to you the same working day with a steer on what's involved and what it'll cost.
