Why Cyclesport?

Who are Cyclesport customers? As an independently-owned, locally-run bike shop, we welcome anyone who loves to pedal – whoever you may be. Knee-high pedal hounds, total newbies, high-end young thrashers, Pelaton-destroying chargers, Sunday-only coffee-lovers and everyone in between wander through our doors. We sell and service new bikes, keep old ones running, fix that problem you just can’t work out and supply new riding gear, tyres, grips, pumps and everything you need to keep your pedally running and your legs rolling over. Our 4.9 Star Google Reviews rating is well earned!

Don't just take our word for it, here's what our customers say, on Google (4.9 star rating!) and in real life

Rang the store and spoke with Graeme as I was looking for a very small cheap but hard to find part. They didn't have the part in stock but they searched the workshop for a used one to try and help me out and checked with the supplier and rang me back within minutes. While they ultimately couldn't help me (no fault of theirs as the supplier has no stock) it was impressive to cold call a store and receive such excellent service over a small inexpensive part.

Cyclesport Thornleigh has been my go to bike shop for almost 10 years. Between myself and my boys, we pretty much run a fleet of mountain bikes and Graeme, Chris and the team keep them running smooth. From wheel builds and suspension servicing to a quick check over before a big trip away, they do it all and do it well.They also have all the things you need to set up with a new bike and riding gear, including honest advice and prices. Highly recommended!

I don't deal well with being stuffed around or feeling like I am being taken for a ride (pardon the pun) - Cyclesport is as honest as they come and the servicing is top notch. So I keep going there. Simple.

Fantastic experience from dropping off the bike to collection. Graeme kept me well informed of the works being carried out and any additional works that might be required once the service started. Was even able to adjust a few bits that they noticed during the process! Brilliant service from start to finish - highly recommend and will be using these guys more in the future

What can I say about Cyclesport Thornleigh that hasn’t been penned yet? From the moment I accidentally walked into what turned out the wrong shop geographically, in turn became a blessing as Graeme turned the experience into one, that made it the right shop for EVERY other reason! Graeme bent over backwards to accommodate my requests and needs. Then Chris was brilliant in helping me out with the correct part, not just for the bike itself, but for my own comfort which turned out to be a huge game changer. This kind of service comes from not just working in a bike shop, but living a life of bikes! These boys made it a great experience using their services and I am hooked on the thoroughness and quality of their workmanship and professionalism. As the old adage goes, “I liked the business so much, I bought it”. That personifies Graeme who bought a bike there as a kid and has now in turn bought the shop a few years ago. That’s another depth the what the business means. Thanks guys for your exemplary service.

This LBS is a little gem. My two mtb were in desperate need of some TLC. Graham and Chris delivered - both bikes ride like new. First ride on my "new" bike was a route PB, and I've ridden it hundreds of times over the years. Anyway, can't say enough about how good they are and their prices are more than reasonable.

I've recently taken my two road bikes into the Cycle sport mechanics for some work. Chris and Pete helped me fine tune elements on my bike and gave me helpful information. Highly recommend this beautiful little local shop. Genuine caring bike people. Thank you for your kindness

Bought my bike 3 years ago and had the best advice and price around. Buy everything I can from these guys. Graham's advice and patience is so appreciated. Nothing is ever a problem. I just want to ride and let him maintain my bike which he does promptly and with a smile!

Road, Mountain and Family Bikes

Thornleigh is a strong Mountain Bike area, so we sell and service Specialized, VMG, Smartmotion and Giant Mountain bikes, including e-bikes.

Gravel bikes, road bikes and kids bikes are also our bread and butter and whether you ride like the bloke on the left, or get out once a month, our experienced staff will match you to the bike that best suits how and where you ride.

An Aussie-developed e-bike?

When carbon fibre specialist VMG took a good look at the current crops of e-bikes, they thought “we can make one of those!” So they did. Check one out in real life in store, in the mean time, see how the VMG Typhon came together in this video.

Service Centre

General Service

Yes – we service anything you can pedal!

We will go through your bike front to back, checking cables, gears, chains, frames, brakes, wheels and everything else that makes your bike work like it should.

We work on an hourly rate plus parts, which we can estimate once we see the bike. Drop it off or ring first to book – whatever works for you!

Hourly rate plus parts
Recommended every 3-6 months

Wheel Truing/Repair

The Thornleigh area is famous for rocks and potholes, so no matter what you ride, chances are your wheels look like a wobbly 50 cent piece.

If this describes your wheels, bring them to us. We can repair/true most types of wheels, improving pedalling, braking and making the bike feel like new again. We will even tweak your gears while we are at it. 

Recommended if those wheels ain’t straight

Bike Building

Is that bike you bought on-line just not bolting up right? Or you had a crack at putting it together, but it doesn’t seem right? Cyclesport can build it for you once and build it right. We loc-tite the right threads, correctly torque bolts, adjust gears and basically make it feel like a new bike should. 

Recommended with bikes bought on-line or simply not built right

Bike Fitting

Cyclesport’s bike fitting service is carried out by our professionally trained staff, with over 20 years experience ensuring different bikes fit different bodies. We are all different, so we all need our new bike to fit right, to avoid injury (or even work around the injury you have!), make the best of the machine, boost pedalling efficiency and essentially enjoy your bike more!

Recommended for any bike – new, second hand or one you just started riding again.

Frequently Asked Questions

We haven’t heard it all before – but here are some we have!

We sure do! We can quote you once we know what it is you need and what you have – give us a ring first, or drop in.

We sure do! In fact, we insist on it. We recommend it happens within 6-8weeks of the purchase, depending on how much riding you have done. Chains and cables stretch, brakes need checking, we run a spanner over everything to ensure it’s still tight, etc. 

Cyclesport only sells new Specialized, Giant and Liv, VMG and Smartmotion pushbikes. If we don’t have the model from those brands you are after – we can get it in for you (order times vary, we can inform when you enquire).
