Every Tuesday 3pm -5:30pm at the Old Slaughterhouse on Church Road, Stapleford.
LATEST NEWS
Please be aware that the term “Dr Bike” is used by other similar groups that are nothing to do with our weekly Stapleford workshops.
In particular, there are three South Cambs DC-funded Dr Bike sessions being offered in Pampisford Village Hall on 9th March, 9th April and 1st June 2026 as well as other locations in South Cambridgeshire on other dates.
You can find out more about these sessions at https://www.facebook.com/photo/?fbid=876905885319963&set=g.252172550607524
Just to be clear, these are not related to 2G3S or the weekly Dr Bike Stapleford workshops, but we are happy to advertise them as they offer a similar service. None of the Pampisford dates clashes with our Tuesday workshops, so they do provide an alternative way of getting your bike checked out or fixed.
*************************************************************
A small group of volunteers is using the Old Slaughterhouse, next to the Three Horseshoes pub in Stapleford, as a community bike repair shed. This is a 2G3S initiative with support from local Cycling UK members, and the local Repair Café organisation. Stapleford Parish Council have kindly allowed the use of their Grade 2-listed building for this purpose.
We will do free ‘Dr Bike’ type safety checks, with adjustments and minor repairs for a donation.
We are open every Tuesday between 3pm and 5:30 pm.
Drag that bike out of your shed or garage, bring it to us, and hopefully we can show you how we make it easier and safer to ride. Whether or not you ride regularly we will try to improve your bike with our simple checks and service.
Normally only a series of simple things are needed to make a bike serviceable, and then it should require much less effort to ride! And we can advise on best way to tackle other issues.
We offer a free 23-point check, and we can do minor repairs for a donation (just to help us maintain a stock of commonly used spares).
Children are welcome but must bring a responsible adult with them as well as their bike.
We can’t undertake work on e-Bike electrics, but we can deal with the non-electrical aspects of e-bikes such as brakes. Some of our volunteers are experienced in hydraulic bike brake repairs/fluid change.
We always welcome additional volunteers to help occasionally. For those with a little skill we can easily show you how to do important basic ‘Dr Bike’ checks, with help from those with decades of fiddling with cycles.
Contact us either by email at drbikestapleford@gmail.com, or just come and pay us a visit when we are open – every Tuesday afternoon from 3pm to 5:30pm. There is no need to book.
