Over the past few weeks, things have been buzzing here at Amped Cycles. As our shop continues to grow, we’ve welcomed two fantastic new team members who are already making a big impact. Joining Garry and Helen at the helm, Sam and Krisztian have stepped in to strengthen both the shop floor and the workshop—bringing with them heaps of experience, passion, and fresh energy
Meet Sam
Sam has joined us from another Trek bike shop, and he’s fitted right into life at Amped Cycles. His knowledge of Trek bikes and the systems we use is second to none, and his enthusiasm for everything Trek shines through in everything he does.
Around the shop, you’ll find Sam lending a hand wherever he’s needed—whether it’s helping customers choose their next dream bike, posting updates on our Facebook and Instagram, or rolling up his sleeves to get your bike back on the road when you’re in a pinch. He’s the kind of all-rounder every shop needs, and we’re thrilled to have him on board.
But Sam’s passion for cycling doesn’t stop at the shop doors. Outside of work, he’s making a name for himself on the national cross-country mountain bike racing scene. Competing on his Trek Supercaliber 9.8, he’s had an outstanding season, including a win at Round 4 of the National Series and finishing 2nd overall in his category. His racing experience gives him first-hand insight into the bikes, gear, and training that make the difference at every level of cycling.
Meet Krisztian
At the other end of the spectrum, we’ve welcomed Krisztian, or Krisz, into our workshop team. Krisz brings over 30 years of experience in the cycling trade, making him a true veteran of the industry. His career has taken him from working in one of the UK’s largest bike shops to successfully running his own store in London—a background that speaks to both his technical expertise and his love of helping riders keep their bikes in perfect shape.
Here at Amped Cycles, Krisz has already brought some much-needed relief to our busy workshop. Whether he’s picking up the phone to talk you through the work needed on your bike or welcoming you in when you pop by for a repair, you can expect friendly, honest advice and meticulous attention to detail. His calm, professional approach has made him an instant hit with the team and our customers alike.
Looking Ahead
With Sam and Krisz now part of the crew, Amped Cycles is better equipped than ever to support our growing community of riders. Whether you’re coming in for a new bike, dropping off a repair, or simply stopping by for a chat, we’re proud to have such a strong team here to welcome you.
Next time you’re in the shop, be sure to say hello to Sam and Krisz—they’d love to meet you.
