Dr Bike Check Ups

Dust down your bike and bring it along to get a free safety check at our Hub Tuesdays. See our ‘Dr Bike’ mechanic and get your cycle checked over and minor repairs fixed, we’ll also point you to the right place to get more major repairs sorted! You can also quiz our ‘Dr Bike’ on maintenance issues and get some great bike fixing tips too!

eBike Servicing & Repair

Not only do we keep our own fleet of eBikes on the road but we’re now happy to service and repair your own eBikes at The Active Travel Hub in Brodick. It’s a service you’ll find at most bike shops on the mainland which is now available from Eco Savvy, saving the expense and hassle of ferry trips. We’re dealing with Bosch motors primelary at the moment but let us take a look at others first before making a trip to the mainland.

BikeRegister Security

We can now Mark & Protect your own bike for free with funding from NAC. Registering on BikeRegister means you could be reunited with your bike in the event of it being stolen. To reduce the chances of you becoming a victim of cycle theft, we can identify your bike with a laminated, tamper resistant warning label with unique QR code that can be scanned instantly with a smartphone. Just drop your bike into the Active Travel Hub on any Tuesday and we’ll apply the label and Register the bike with you.
