Seaside Cycles is an independent cycle shop based in Southend on Sea, Essex. The shop operates from an old public house, the Golden Lion which is a beautifully restored Edwardian building. I came to the bike trade late in life following a 40 year career working in London as a graphic designer, but I've always loved cycling and tinkering with bikes so the shop is really a vocation or calling.
I treat each bike I work on as if it were my own. I have a fully equipped workshop which is always busy doing anything from a puncture repair to a full service, rebuild or restoration.
Classic and vintage steel road bikes are what I love most and there are many on display and for sale in the shop.
