I took a very important document to Joe to be framed. The job was left with Joe for a week and firstly when i returned the document had been put in the wrong frame. When this was corrected I took the framed document home and discovered that there was what appeared to be some sort of black (possibly pencil) mark on the document, plus an area of the document had some sort of abrasion mark (as if a part of the surface had been pulled up by something sticky) - Joe has denied anything to do with the damage, however I have photo graphic evidence of the mint condition of the document before it was left with Joe. I returned and had Joe remove the document from the frame - overall, very poor workmanship with devastating results for my family.

I bought a used bike on marketplace for my 7yo for Christmas and realised at the last moment that the gears weren't selecting properly. In a mild panic I rang these fellas and asked if they could take a look at it on Christmas Eve before COB. They said if I came in ASAP they'd help me so I went straight there and they took a look at it, adjusted things for a few minutes and gave it back working properly. Didn't charge me a dime, just said Merry Christmas and gave me a smile. What a wonderful group of people!

  • Joe De Martino

On Forest Road Ferntree Gully very near the roundabout you will find the Local Bicycle Shop. I took my bike in to have the rear inner tube replaced. A task that is far too complex for me. Andrew had it all done within a couple of hours and very reasonably priced. Great customer service. The store is also well fitted out with a number of different bikes for all ages and types as well as well stocked with plenty of accessories. For service or for a purchase well worth a look into.

Was quoted an agreed price when I dropped off my bike. All worked agreed was carried out apart from making sure everything was tightened as it should be, my handle bars still wobble but that I can fix but no extra work was done. Apon picking up my bike I was charged more than the quoted price. When I explained to the person at the store about the agreed quote they couldn't care less....would not recommend this store.

Super fast and friendly service, great product knowledge from decades in the industry. good range of bikes, scooters, helmets and accessories. Andrew has always gone above and beyond when helping me get my old outdated bikes up and running. Would not hesitate to recommend this business to anyone looking for personalised knowledgeable bike service.

  • Michael Walker

After an epic gravel ride, and general use, my bike was a bit worse for wear. Andrew sorted me out with a few repiars. He also went the extra mile giving the bike a thorough check and letting me know what to look out for in the coming months and what else needed replacing very soon. Thanks for the great service and advice …

  • Leah Wigg

Joe provided fantastic customer service, and advice on framing three photos from our wedding. The price was great value for money, and really happy how they turned out. I'd come back here anytime for framing, buying oil paintings or art classes! I'm looking forward to starting art classes with Joe's framing.
