A dedicated workshop is the dream of many riders; a space to tinker to your heart's content and save money on expensive bike shop bills.
While the real luxury is the space to have such an area, many things go into making a useful workshop, including layout, outfitting and storage.
With BiGDUG offering huge savings on a range of workshop equipment, we've highlighted some of the accessories that will level up your workshop and have your local bike mechanic wondering where you’ve gone.
BiGDUG Garage 24" 6 Drawer Tool Chest & Rollcab Set

No workshop is complete without a tool chest, and this set from BigDUG comes with a Rollcab that not only adds more storage but keeps the chest mobile.
Measuring 1,037x616x295mm, BiGDUG says it encompasses all the features of the larger tool chests, but in a slightly more compact design.
The top chest features central locking, so you can punish those who don’t put tools away properly, and has drawers that run on 25mm ball bearing runners for smooth operation.
There’s also an option to have the chest in blue, should you wish to match your workshop to your tools, or you can pick from red and black.
With a 47 per cent saving, this could be rolling into your workspace very soon.
BiGDUG Essentials Interlocking Vinyl Floor Tile

It’s not uncommon to drop things when working on your bike, with contact with the floor often resulting in damaged surfaces, or worse, scuffed components.
These Interlocking Vinyl Floor Tiles from BiGDUG offer protection against both eventualities and are resistant to oils, moisture, solvents and chemicals.
Many bike shops I’ve worked in have used similar flooring to reduce noise from dropped tools and components, while also fighting fatigue from standing when you're working on your bike.
The flooring is said to be easy to install with jigsaw-style connectors, and comes in grey and black.
BiGDUG Garage Drawer Cabinet Workbench

A quality workbench is the beating heart of any workshop, providing the perfect place for fine fettling and component reconstruction.
This Garage Drawer Cabinet Workbench from BiGDUG features a 30mm-thick, FSC-approved solid hevea worktop that should withstand some flak, and three drawer and cupboard combinations to suit your needs.
The drawers are made from hard-wearing powder-coated metal that should remain sturdy for years to come.
It comes in 1,200mm and 1,700mm-wide variations, depending on how much space you need, and features ball-bearing runners on the drawers for smooth operation.
BiGDUG Essentials 265kg Shelving

In any workshop, you’re going to need space to store heavy items – whether that’s tools or components.
This Essentials Shelving from BiGDUG comes in a variety of widths and depths to suit every workshop and features a Blue powder-coated European steel frame.
5 MDF shelves can be adjusted every 35mm to suit different-sized items, with the top of the frame also featuring as a shelf.
The shelving also has a three-year manufacturer's warranty included.
City Wallmount Bicycle Rack

Storing your bikes can be a hassle, especially if you’ve subscribed to the N+1 theory for some time.
This City Wallmount Bicycle Rack from BigDUG offers a great solution, with your bike's front tyre simply sliding into the mount.
With 180 degrees of adjustability, you can set the mount up at an angle to squeeze more bikes into a space.
For £13.48, this looks like a great solution for anyone looking to simplify their bike storage setup.
Wire Storage Basket Shelving

Keeping large bike components organised can be problematic, but this wire shelving looks like a great way to keep track of what you’ve got without taking up too much space.
The shelving features a corrosion-resistant plastic coating, so it should be fine to throw wet riding kit, such as shoes and helmets, into it, and it can be stacked up to four baskets high.
The large wire bins make visibility easy, so you shouldn’t be digging around them looking for what you need.
