Outstanding customer service! Booked my bike for a service. Good recommendations for new components that needed to be replaced. Got my bike back and it feels like brand new. If you are looking for a bike service I highly recommend Forge1860!

Fab service, very personal, great bikes and kit, what is not to like! Thank you for supporting my cycling journey. Nick

Will and your TEAM, I wanted to take a moment to express my sincere appreciation for the exceptional way you combine your passion for cycling with your commitment to customer service. Your enthusiasm for cycling doesn't just show in your knowledge of bikes and equipment, but in how you genuinely connect with customers who share that interest. The way you go above and beyond to understand each customer's specific cycling needs and preferences truly stands out. Your patience in explaining technical details, suggesting appropriate gear, and sharing your personal insights from the cycling community creates an experience that's both helpful and inspiring. Your authentic love for cycling translates into the kind of customer service that builds lasting relationships rather than just completing transactions. Customers can feel that you genuinely care about enhancing their cycling experience, not just making a sale. Thank you.

The complete bike shop since 1860. Focused on you from the moment you walk in for anything from an inner tube to a bike fit or bike. Helpful, courteous and knowledgeable the team are there to help you with what you need.

Quick, attentive, excellent service.

Mat did great job and me a favour sorting contaminated brake after just popping in on off chance. Much appreciated!

Great service, personal and attentive, increasingly broad and exclusive range of products.

Good service, effeciently, friendly and knowledgeable staff done well within the agreeed time frame.

Always quality service and advice given, extremely helpful staff and owners. Quality bikes and accessories. This is my ‘go to’ bike shop for information, products and bike servicing.


Pearsons (now renamed Forge1860) is everything a bike shop. They manufacture excellent bikes, the service is friendly and sensible. The two brothers (5th generation with 6th generation working in the shop) are always there to welcome you and ask what you need. The workshop is busy but you can always pop in at the weekend and they will endeavour to help. I would not go anywhere else.

Excellent timely service. Best bike shop in London

Lovely friendly family business. Expert knowledge. Since you ask…changing the unique and lovely Pearson logo for a vanilla one is a mistake in my view. Never ask unskilled people what they think of graphic design and then act on a poll! That’s all X

Forge 1860 are knowledgeable, friendly and helpful. A pleasure to deal with.

Well designed bikes Good advisory service V competent workshop. Good range of quality accessories Welcoming personnel and good ambiance
