About HYPT Bike Performance
Riders visit HYPT from across Durham, Newcastle, Northumberland, Teesside and throughout the North East for our premium bike fitting, workshop services and carefully curated range of road and gravel bikes.
Everything You Need to Ride at Your Best
HYPT Bike Performance is more than a bike shop. Based in Durham and serving cyclists from across the North East, we're dedicated to helping riders get the very best from every ride through expert advice, premium products and industry-leading cycling services.
Whether you're searching for your next road bike or gravel bike, looking for professional bike servicing, or booking a comprehensive bike fit, our experienced team is here to provide the knowledge and support you won't find in a typical cycle shop.
Our services include professional bike fitting using the exclusive ID Match system, expert bike servicing and repairs, custom bike builds, wheel and drivetrain upgrades, and ongoing workshop support. We specialise in premium road, gravel and performance bikes, with extensive experience working on the latest Shimano, SRAM and Campagnolo groupsets, electronic shifting systems, hydraulic disc brakes and high-performance components.
IT'S OUR WAY OF LIFE...
Born from a lifelong passion for riding and racing, our mission is simple: to deliver the very best in cycling performance, service, and experience.
Founded by David Robinson, with over 15 years in the cycling industry and former owner of Infinity Cycles, HYPT is built on deep roots in the sport. From road racing to gravel adventures, we live and breathe bikes.
WE LIVE TO RIDE...
We don't just work in the bike industry, the bike industry and riding is what we do, 7 days a week, 52 weeks of the year. If we're not in the store, take it for granted we're out riding!
Lead Mechanic Tomas is a seasoned Gravel Racer who last season competed in the Lithuanian and UK National Champs and in 2025 ticked off the Epic Dirty Reiver.
Dave has raced on the road for over 20 years and recent highlights include the Haute Route Alps, Majorca 312, and the 2024 Gravel World Championships.
WHY RIDERS CHOOSE HYPT
At HYPT, we're passionate about creating an experience that's every bit as exceptional as the bikes we sell.
As an independent bike shop in Durham, we've built our reputation on specialist knowledge, honest advice and genuine relationships with the riders who walk through our doors. We believe buying a bike should never feel like a transaction. It should be an exciting, personal experience backed by expert guidance and long-term support.
That's why we specialise in premium road and gravel cycling, offering a carefully curated range of world-class bikes, clothing and components alongside professional services that help every rider perform at their best.
Whether you're investing in your first performance bike, building your dream custom build or preparing for your next event, our team is here to support you every step of the way with:
Professional ID Match bike fitting to maximise comfort, efficiency and performance.
Custom bike builds tailored to your riding style, goals and budget.
Honest, independent advice to help you choose the right bike, not simply the most expensive one.
Ongoing workshop support, upgrades and maintenance to keep your bike performing season after season.
Unlike many bike shops, we don't try to be everything to everyone. Instead, we've chosen to focus on what we know best—premium road and gravel cycling.
It's this specialist approach, combined with years of industry experience and a genuine passion for riding, that brings cyclists to HYPT from Durham, Newcastle, Sunderland, Northumberland, Teesside and across the North East. Many of our customers travel even further because they know they'll receive expert advice, meticulous attention to detail and a level of personal service that's difficult to find elsewhere.
For us, the relationship doesn't end when you collect your bike. Whether you need a bike fit, workshop support, advice on your next upgrade or simply somewhere to stop for a coffee and talk bikes, you'll always receive the same warm welcome.
Because at HYPT, we're not just here to sell bikes—we're here to help you enjoy every mile.
