Opening Times
We are now closed for the holidays and will reopen on Monday 11th January 2021!
Fix Your Bike Vouchers!
The workshop is now accepting the £50 Fix Your Bike Vouchers. This voucher is worth £50 towards getting your bike serviced and back on the road. Our waiting list is about a week at the moment, and we usually have time for emergencies and on the spot jobs every day of the week. Give our mechanics a call: 0207 253 1025
Our four full time mechanics (which you can meet below), have a huge wealth of experience and between us we can do it all. Road bikes, Bromptons, cargo bikes, MTBs, hybrids, Dutch bikes and 'cross bikes. From wheel building, electronic gear systems, hydraulic brakes, suspension, belt drives and tubeless tyres, we've got it covered. We are focussed on high quality work, fast turnarounds and excellent communication.
We can take walk-in jobs but we'd rather you contact us before you come down if you can.

Meet the Mechanics!
Sam Humpheson
Sam founded the Lmnh workshop in 2010. Before that he spent 15 years as a mechanic beginning at Action Bikes before moving on to work at Cyclefit in Covent Garden and Sigma Sport in Kingston.
What are your Specialist skillz?
I've built a few wheels in my time. I love a good Di2 troubleshooting session and sometimes you can find me off my tits on tub glue.
How many bikes do you own and which is your favourite?
Er, lots. The favourite depends on my mood but my mood but it's either the Donhou custom, or the 12 year old Seven Axiom.
Biscuit of choice
TUNNOCKS.

“Big Dave”
Dave has been here so long we even named a burger after him. Dave can do it all, you break it, he'll fix it. He's Lmnh's problem solver and is happiest with a Dremel in one hand and some Araldite in the other.
How many bikes do you own and which is your favourite?
14 bikes... my favourite has to be my BMX BSD Raider.
Favourite tool?
Crank Extractor
Biscuit of choice
Chocolate hobnob!!

Graham has spent the last 4 years teaching English in Southeast Asia, returning to the UK to help us fix bikes at 49 Old Street. Previously he's spun spanners for Giant Cambridge and Station Cycles (also based in Cambridge), and before all that he was building his own bikes at home, self teaching and learning the hard way.
What else do you do?
I look at bikes, ride bikes, think about bikes, sometimes all at the same time. I also do quite a lot of eating, I enjoy Muay Thai, rock climbing, and photography. Always looking to get involved in conservation and environmental projects.
How many bikes do you own and which is your favourite?
Not enough - about 4 and two halves at the moment (must build more). Favourites are polar opposites so can’t pick just one, and they are currently my only two good ones. Cinelli Supercorsa and Yeti SB6.
Favourite tool?
Spokey
Specialist skillz:
Old skool Campag and stuff to do with old steel bikez. Italian, in particular.
Biscuit of choice:
No contest. Party Rings.
Knowledge is power
Want to fix your bike yourself? We run basic and intermediate bicycle maintenance courses that will teach you the fundamentals of bicycle repair.

Held at 49 Old Street every month from 10am till 4pm. Includes FREE TOOL KIT (Pedros multi tool, tyre levers & repair kit) and COFFEE.
