SICO Bikes

Simon is a knowledgeable bike mechanic based in Maidstone, Kent with more than 15 years of experience within the cycle industry – he’s also a hugely passionate rider.

He started his career in biking in the early 00s with his first bike – a Mongoose Menace BMX. Simon then took an interest in trials riding after being inspired by the likes of legendary riders Martyn Ashton and Martin Hawes. He went on to ride in competitions in Essex Trials Club, which covered the South of England.

Simon is now a keen enduro rider and is transferring his trials skills to this – albeit he hasn’t quite conquered his fear of gap jumps just yet.

He has worked in several bike shops across Kent – making him a knowledgeable bike mechanic. Simon is happy to recommend products, tune ups, bikes and places to cycle locally. Take a look at the services page to see how Simon and help you or drop him a message via the contact page.
