Absolutely fantastic service from this independent store. They've helped me choose my new bike and equipment, get the right sizes and then sent my bike to me in Bristol by courier, all whilst the UK is on lockdown! It was serviced before being packaged, all I had to do was tighten a few screws. Unbelievable service even in these tricky times, can't thank them enough. Cheers!

Superb service... the staff are super friendly and knowledgeable. Wouldn’t dream of going elsewhere for future purchases or servicing!

Bought a Volt Pulse E-Bike from here, my first e-bike. They were incredibly knowledgeable about the bike, gave me a good test ride of it as well. They even fast-tracked the initial service for me as I was only going to be in town for two days! Impeccable service, really nice people, and the bike is fantastic!

Guys at Williams are so great! Was looking for a bike and didn’t really know why I wanted, and the info and choice they have is second to none! I now travel to these guys for everything I need from Worcestershire, as it is worth the effort!

Always an excellent service from Williams Cycles! I am a disabled customer and they are always very accommodating when I need work done on my bike.

Bought 2 e- bikes from Williams earlier this year - incredibly helpful service from Williams cycles - had some teething problems with both bikes (nothing to do with Williams, I should add) and Dom and Josh went to great lengths to hep us get everything sorted. Really rare these days to get such helpful service and we really appreciated it. Highly recommend this bike shop.

Just bought a Saracen Mantra Trail 2020. They set it up perfectly for my style of riding ,and offer a free service after 4 weeks of riding . The staff are friendly and are really helpful. Definitely recommend visiting this bike shop as it is by far the best all-round bike shop in Cheltenham.❤️

Great customer service, have gone above and beyond on both occasions we have visited providing great advice with no pressure to buy. Unboxed and fitted child’s car seat onsite and then on the second occasion assembled my daughters new bike within an hour as they could see how excited she was to take it home that day. Will definitely be going back! 👍🏼

Amazing customer service received by all but especially Dom (think that's his name!!). We bought two bikes from you and it's the best decision we could have made. Never too much hassle and explained everything well from the very beginning. Would reccomned these guys to anyone, don't go anywhere else for you bike needs!!!!!

Amazing service from all that helped us, the guys here really took there time with us and gave us all the information and guidance we needed. We had gone to look around a couple places before going here, but after talking to the guys we knew we would buy our bikes from from them. Because of the service we bought 2 bikes, locks and a car rack and we will be back to buy any others bits we will need because these guys are just simply great at what they do. We will never show anywhere else for our biking needs.

Just visited Dominic at Williams to get more info and trial ebikes. Dom and the team gave us great advice, guidance and their time which made for a really pleasant shopping experience. They took the time to understand our needs and allowed us to try out models for size, feel and fit. As a family run business with service at its heart it was so much more pleasant than an internet purchase! Thanks guys for your knowledge, patience and customer service. I would heartily recommend you to anyone who wishes to make an informed purchase.

Williams Cycles have been amazing with the recent purchase of my bike. I wasn't the easiest customer, changing my mind and making lots of requests. They were so patient and helpful, responding to my emails instantly, answering all of my questions and being very reassuring with my final decision. In the end I've come away with a bike I love will ensure I always go to Williams! Thank you.

Went into Williams cycles to ask if they had any old bike wheels that I could use for my wedding. The guys were do helpful and friendly I can't thank them enough. I may not have bought a bike but their customer service is on point. Thank you guys so very much.

Have shopped here many times, for various cycle gear (and my wife's bike). Always very helpful staff, not pushy at all. Always pleased with what we have bought.

Friendly Courteous knowledgeable staff. Service second to none even let me take a few wheel boxes when i needed them F.O.C, cant thank the guys enough. Excellent ranges of bikes, components and accessories, this is what a passionate cycling shop is in what it has in stock and its staff and their approach to their customers.

Always prefer to support local businesses so decided to buy a much needed bike to start going out with my daughter and getting a bit fitter at the same time. Staff are very helpful and interested in helping you find the right one for your cycling needs

Every bike I've ever owned has come from here :) I love riding them all!! Gotta be the Family shop !

Excellent service - Williams had ample opportunity to over estimate the work necessary, claim additional time taken or parts for the repair to the hub gear cable fitting on my bike, but the work was done quickly at a very reasonable cost. Trustworthy and great value. Thanks.

Thank you so much for all of your help. Our 11 year old son wanted to both purchase a bike and get a custom design scooter(all his own money). Josh was a delight and got him the perfect bike. He then helped source bits for his scooter, spending ages with Monty getting the right bits (at no point did we feel rushed). He then has built the scooter for him. Monty is delighted, and although a little shy, thinks Josh is amazing. We will definitely be back, and can highly recommend them and their extensive knowlegde.

Always helpful here. Went in for some small bike components. Didn't have any in stock but one of the staff gave me them off his own bike. That's what you call customer service!

Helpful place - minor repair carried out to my Shimano Ultegra road pedals (they’re an official service centre) - no charge. Decent of them - helpful bunch! Well stocked with bikes too.
