Spares and repairs?

[Nick H]

Hello Fellows
I would like to upgrade and generally tinker with my ebikes but am not confident to buy online. Are there any shops or businesses around the Essex/London borders where I can purchase parts face to face from a reputable, knowledgeable and reasonable source?

Regards
Nick H

I don't know because I'm from the North East- but did you look in the dealer directory on this site?

If you're after an electric bike shop you may find they aren't much help with brands they don't sell, worth a try though. I'm by the Dartford tunnel and I'm not aware of any ebike shops this side of London.

What do you need to buy?

Maybe you can buy with some member in london/essex online, and they can help you if you have any problem installing the part?

If it's a simple task of cables/wires, I can help as I live in london

A bit further into town than you asked for, but The Electric Transport Shop has a branch in London (Electric Bike Sales - London Store Details). I have dealt with the branch in Oxford and have been able to buy some specialist parts from their stock. They claim to be able to get virtually any electric bike part, but I suspect there will be a long wait for delivery and that the prices will be high compared with ordering from abroad. They do seem to know what they are talking about though.

Echo the above. An excellent shop who aren't stocking our bikes, so I've no ulterior motive in recommending. I wish they would though...

I've found them good in the past but their shop is a right pain to get to from east London and it's not near a tube station.
