In the week beginning 24 March, technicians from Bespoke Cycles will be offering safety checks for e-bikes and e-scooters. This programme is funded by Property Services, and checks are free for all students and staff.

Checks will include:

  •  Battery voltage, discharge current and charger safety
  • Bolts, headset bearing and wheel bearing 
  • Brake pads and chain wear
  • Minor brake and other adjustments if required

The technicians will be onsite in selected bike cages from 7.30am until 4.30pm on the dates below.

There is no need for booking, and the team will be able to help you on arrival.

If time permits, the technicians can also complete safety checks on standard bikes and scooters.
