Recommendations - Twickenham area

[Bigad]

Hi

I was wondering whether anybody out there had particular recommendations for cycle shops around Teddington, Twickenham, Richmond area?

For general maintenance, fitting build up and potential upgrades.

thanks a lot

24 years since I lived around that area, but how about contacting anyone at Twickenham Cycling Club for advice. Sorry to not be of any more use.

Sigma Cycles in Hampton Wick is a proper, big, high-end type road bike store, almost like a show room, if that's what you're looking for.

I'm in the area too - Twickenham.

Action Bikes in Whitton (along the high street), very friendly and helpful.

Did anyone else use Ken Ryalls in Hounslow?

Cheers. I've been in Sigma Cycles, and it seems a bit too far into the road cycling world for what I'm looking for (something more like a touring bike, really). Haven't been to Whitton in a while, I'll give it a go.
Been to Evans in Kingston quite a lot, and always go in the new shop next door when I'm round there (is it Specialised or Trek or something like that)?
Also had a fair bit of work done at Moore Cycles in Teddington - they seem very patient!

Pearsons have just opened a fantastic new shop in Sheen...if you want some excellent advice and something a bit different. They are in the process of launching their new range
