Superior Velo Tech: bike workshop in Bournemouth

Superior Velo Tech (SVT) is a bike workshop based in Bournemouth, in the county of Dorset (United Kingdom), serving customers from Poole, Christchurch and the south of England. It is run by Steve Hassell, a mechanic with over 30 years of experience working on some of the world's fastest and finest bikes.

The workshop operates from a purpose-built space, with specialist equipment and tooling that enable high-quality servicing. The company presents itself as an option for discerning cyclists, from club racers to world champions.

Specialisation in bike servicing and preparation

SVT's activity focuses on the maintenance and tuning of high-end bikes. The service catalogue includes general servicing, custom builds, Di2 and eTap electronic groupset servicing, hydraulic brakes, suspension tuning, wheel building and race preparation.

The workshop also offers a wrapping service, as can be seen from its navigation menu and the services listed.

Steve Hassell's competitive experience

Steve Hassell has competed in BMX and mountain bike at national and world championship level for over 40 years. That background allows him to understand the demands that competition places on both the bike and the rider, and to apply that experience to preparing the machines.

The company states that bikes prepared by SVT have won national championships and have reached the podium at world championships.

Focus on precision

SVT's approach is aimed at cyclists looking for detailed work. The workshop itself presents itself as a service for bikes that others have failed to put right, with a focus on elements such as derailleur hanger alignment or un-faced bottom brackets. The company describes its method as the opposite of a production-line workshop, prioritising quality of work and solving complex problems.
