London Service Advice

NWLondoner

It looks like my beloved PX needs to have some TLC.

Being stuck in NW London the choice of LBS for servicing is quite limited.

Can anyone recommend a good LBS for bike servicing. They especially need to be reliable/trusted to work on my Bottom Bracket and Headset.

At moment torn between Cycle Surgery (West Hampstead or Kings Cross) :? or Evans (Hendon) :twisted:

Personally, I wouldn't even ask evans to change a tyre!

Aren't you near Shorter Rochford? I've heard some good things about them.

STAY AWAY FROM EVANS!!!

Bloody hell. Just quoted August 17th by Cycle Surgery West Hampstead!!!

May try Shorter Rochford.

Hoping i can sorted by the bike whisper later this week.

I was just going to mention the Bike Whisperer - superb service at reasonable rates. Highly recommended.

I use Racheed from Cycledelic (in fact he just repaired my TT bike an hour ago)

He does a great job, travels all over London and prices are good.

There's the Bike Shop in Pinner Road, North Harrow. See www.questbikes.co.uk

They are at the centre of cycle racing in the west of London so will know how to treat your bike.

Thanks for that. Have mailed them to see when they could do it.

If the bike whisperer cannot do quick enough then may give them a go.

He beat me to it, +1 though. Friendly and very reliable.

Well The Bike Whisperer has come though for me. They are squeezing me in on Wednesday

Just hope my parts from Chain Reaction turn up in time
