31 mins confidence: 
qualified two-wheeler specialist Explanation: Maybe, and assuming that Meister means that he has done his Meisterprüfung. "Bike" to my ears is open to confusion with "bicycle" and is in any case too informal for this context, as well as excluding other two-wheeled vehicles such as scooters. |

35 mins confidence: peer agreement (net): +1
peer agreement (net): +1Qualified motorbike mechanic Explanation: Taken the best out of the other two answers for this one. Two-wheeler just sounds odd to me whereas bike may well be connected to bicycles. Unless he really is a qualified bicycle mechanic (which I doubt) then I think this option might sound the best. |
