Broken drive shaft replacement on a Wahoo Kickr V4

Broken drive shaft replacement on a Wahoo Kickr V4.

Whilst we do manufacture new shafts in house, we had a suitable replacement at hand from one of several donor trainers to get this one back on the metaphorical road.

We can solve the majority of Wahoo Kickr issues with a service - worn bearings, worn shafts, noises, speed sensor issues, damaged power connectors and some electronics issues too!

🚵Hill climb season is here again!🚵

We're happy to be working with @andrew.feather84 again this season to help him defend his national title.

We've just finished off the last few bits on this years whip - a stunning @swicycling AEQUUS, a true carbon monocoque design. Tipping the scales (at the moment...) at just 5.53 kg, this thing is a piece of engineering to behold.

The smart trainers are stacking up for servicing ahead of the winter! We service and repair predominantly Wahoo and Tacx but also some other brands.

Squeaking, creaking, rumbles and groans can normally be ironed out with a service. We machine replacement parts where we can as they're often not available off the shelf.

We carry out some electronics repairs too.

Had an influx of smart trainers of late...

We machine new flywheel shafts for Wahoo Kickrs as they're notoriously heavy on them!

We have a few Tacx lined up for service too so stay tuned for more smart trainer content.

🔧🔧 Servicing the unserviceable. 🔧🔧

This poor Dura Ace R9170 lever was packed full of mud so it needed a strip and rebuild. It's about an hour's work but worth it in comparison to the eye watering cost of replacement (if you can find one).

I did something amazing today. I gave blood.

Something I've wanted to do for a long time but always been scared. It turned out to be very easy and not frightening at all!

It's good to know that the blood you donate will get used to help someone in a less fortunate situation.

Do something amazing. Give blood.

🛠️🛠️ Carbon Bike Repair! 🛠️🛠️

🛠️🛠️ Carbon Bike Repair! 🛠️🛠️

What an awesome and informative day out today! We were fortunate enough to get invited by @carbonbikerepair to their Leatherhead HQ to see how they carry out carbon repairs from start to finish.

Their facility is amazing, their pioneering robotic repair technology is really going to move this sector of the industry forward at a rate of knots.

I'm personally feeling slightly frazzled by the amount of information I took on today but certainly feel far more able to assess and advise on carbon frame repairs moving forward.

A massive thanks to Rob and the team for having us.

We service primarily Wahoo and Tacx smart trainers and can fix most of the common problems for a fraction of the price of a new trainer. . . . . #bicyclemaintenancethewayitshouldbe #smarttrainerservicecentre #smarttrainerrepair #smarttrainer #turbotrainer$

🔥🔥Things are hotting up!🔥🔥

@andrew.feather84 sent his 2018 National Championship winning SuperSix Evo high mod frameset to the guys at @carbonbikerepair for a little bit of magic. Using some very sophisticated tech, they've managed to shave even more weight off the frameset.

We had the privilege of building it up with the lightest of lightweight components and it tipped the scales at just 75 g over 5 kg! Absolutely insane! We could get it sub 5 kg with a direct mount chainring but as this is Andrew's training bike, the power meter is essential.

@bikeradar are doing a piece on this bike soon, keep your eyes peeled. 👀
