Bike service bookings are essential at Life Cycle Bikes 13COVID-19 has everyone out riding their bikes at the moment;

  • to comply with lock down and social distancing;
  • to avoid commuter travel,  and
  • just to get  fit while riding with family and friends!

This has translated into an extremely busy time for bicycle retailers all over the world!

At Life Cycle Bikes,our qualified bike mechanics are also under the pump! LCB continues to offer top quality servicing on all bicycle brands and models, however, high demand for servicing and a sporadic supply chain of parts means it is essential to book a service in. We will still replace inner tubes and tyres while you wait.

Bicycles purchased in-store will receive VIP priority as well as discounted labour rates.

STORAGE SERVICE

We also have limited space in our shop so if you can’t collect your bike on your service date, we offer a storage service of $15/week.

To book a service, phone the shop on 0897 587671 or email us at [email protected]

Shared bike path from Midland to Perth CBD a welcome addition

Shared bike path from Midland to Perth CBD a welcome addition

Image may contain: 3 people, outdoorMore bike paths opening up in Perth.

Life Cycle Bikes are glad to see the state government making this a priority.

See below for Rita Saffioti MLA’s recent press release.

Success is in sight for an uninterrupted principal shared path between Midland and the Perth CBD.

The PSP will soon offer a continuous, completely off-road journey for people riding between Midland and the Perth CBD, with construction now underway on the last remaining gap next to Success Hill station.

As well as working together to minimise the impact on existing vegetation, the State Government and the Town of Bassendean have developed the Green Trails initiative.

This will add complementary natural landscaping to the area alongside the path, creating a shaded and scenic green transport route for a more enjoyable walking and riding experience.

I am pleased we have been able to construct this important missing link which will improve safety and convenience for people riding and walking, while preserving much-loved local trees.

This is part of our $146 million investment in shared paths over the next four years to encourage people to walk and cycle and we expect works to be completed in late July.
