TRUE NORTH CYCLE HUB

ABOUT US

True North Cycle Hub have recently moved from their original location in the South West Peak District to its new location at the foot of Wharncliffe Woods, Deepcar, Sheffield. And is run by Jaime and his wife Ali.  

Borne from hours in the saddle, and his love of two wheels Jaime started True North Adventures back in 2016 as the UK's first ebike guiding company with a fleet of 8 Haibike ebikes.  It's now grown, and the Hub is now home to a professional workshop, ebike service centre and a showroom for all bike disciplines.

Jaimes knowledge of riding and racing bikes and ebikes gives him the experience on how bikes need to be maintained, serviced and repaired and also passing years of experience to customers.

Our shop is home to brands we wholeheartedly support and believe in, more often than not thoroughly tried and tested out on the trails.  We stock Mondraker, Yeti, Focus, Haibike, Lapierre, Raleigh for ebikes and bikes, not forgetting the huge name parts such as Fox, RockShox, Michelin, Vittoria, Burgtec etc, check out our online shop for the full list.

From September 2023 we are excited to partner with a quirky and eccentric hotel Bike & Boot.  Their new dog, bike, muddy boot friendly hotel in Hope Valley (Peak District) is about embracing the outside and we've moved our adventures hub in with them at Hope.  With a brand spanking new fleet of top of the range Mondraker ebikes for their customers to hire and enjoy, and guiding options we hope to show more people our love of bikes, and brought us back full circle to our humble beginnings.

What a journey.....
