City bike
Tyres, chain, cables, brakes, lights and chainguard. Daily-use jobs, often same-day.
On Old Hickoryplein since 2010
The bike doctor who actually fixes it.
Michel repairs in Maastricht what other shops give up on. From a flat tyre on the road to a road bike no one else wanted to touch. Honest pricing, no nonsense.

The idea
Don't replace it. Repair it.
Big bike chains earn more on selling a new bike than on a real repair. Here it's the other way around. A worn rear derailleur, a seized bearing, a chain that has two more winters in it: that stays repair work. And the price stays fair, without a glossy showroom mark-up.
What we do
A workshop for every bike, every problem.
Maintenance, repair and revision. For city bikes, e-bikes, road bikes, sport bikes, BMX, vintage and kids' bikes.

A few stories, paraphrased. The full collection lives on Google.
Onderweg met klapband binnengelopen. Vijf minuten later kon ik weer doorrijden, zonder gezeur over een afspraak.
De vorige fietsenmaker zei dat het einde fiets was. Michel zag iets simpels, fixte het, en wij betaalden de helft.
Vlak voor sluitingstijd in de regen aangekomen met bagage en een lekke band. Bleef een kwartier langer open. Vakman.
Snelle service voor mijn racefiets. Versnellingen perfect afgesteld, geen onnodige extra’s erbij verkocht.
No-nonsense gesprek, normale prijzen, en hij geeft je tips zodat de fiets langer meegaat.
Tijdens een touringtocht onderweg geholpen. Konden de route afmaken zonder zorgen.
Mijn dochter belde in paniek, ketting eraf onderweg naar werk. Direct geholpen, ook nog voorband gefixt.
Kwam na sluitingstijd aan met een defecte voorrem en geen contant op zak. Werd toch geholpen, met begrip.
