Pedal to the Metal Bicycle Services

About us

Pedal to the Metal was started after the owner discovered that there was a gap in the market in the West Lothian areas of Winchburgh and Broxburn, located on the outskirts of Edinburgh.
The business was founded in 2019 and became a storefront in 2020, the business has been growing as a bicycle repair shop and stockist since then.

We specialise in building beautiful custom bespoke mountain bikes from hardtails to enduro bikes that will always turn heads wherever you go.
