StainesuponThames, Surrey, United Kingdom Frasers Group PLC TA Sports Direct International Full time

We've come a long way from the local shop in Kennington Road, London in 1921. Back then, we made our own bikes, and even won awards for the quality of our service. It was (and still is) all about knowledge, passion and value. These three things are still part of our DNA – we're still a local bike shop, but now with nationwide stores and a huge online store that operates on a global scale.
