About Rinofu

Since opening our workshop in 2015, we've established ourselves as a trusted bicycle repair service in London. What started as a small operation on Richmond Road has grown into a comprehensive facility serving cyclists throughout the N1 area and beyond.

Our workshop was founded by three mechanics who shared 30 years of combined experience in bicycle maintenance. We noticed that many local shops either rushed through repairs or charged excessive rates for basic services. This gap in the market motivated us to create a service that prioritizes both quality workmanship and fair pricing.

We handle everything from puncture repairs and brake adjustments to complete drivetrain overhauls and wheel building. Our mechanics work with road bikes, mountain bikes, hybrids, and cargo bicycles. Each repair follows a systematic inspection process to identify potential issues before they become serious problems.

Our Approach to Service

Every bicycle that enters our workshop receives a thorough assessment. We document the current condition, explain necessary repairs, and provide transparent cost estimates before starting any work. This process ensures you understand exactly what your bicycle needs and why.

Our mechanics use Park Tool equipment and source replacement parts from established manufacturers. When multiple repair options exist, we present them with honest recommendations based on your riding habits and budget. We don't upsell unnecessary components or services.

The workshop operates six days a week, with extended hours on weekdays to accommodate commuters who need quick turnaround times. We maintain an organized queue system and provide realistic completion estimates. For urgent repairs, same-day service is often available.

Beyond repairs, we offer maintenance packages designed for regular cyclists. These services include seasonal tune-ups, safety inspections, and preventive adjustments that extend component lifespan. Many of our customers schedule quarterly visits to keep their bicycles running smoothly year-round.

What Guides Our Work

Technical Precision

We follow manufacturer specifications and industry standards for every repair. Our mechanics regularly update their knowledge of new bicycle technologies and component systems.

Clear Communication

You receive detailed explanations of required repairs, realistic timelines, and accurate cost estimates. We contact you before performing any additional work beyond the initial quote.

Honest Assessment

If a component can be adjusted rather than replaced, we'll tell you. When a bicycle isn't worth repairing, we provide that assessment too. Our recommendations serve your interests, not our profit margins.
