Gave lots of great advice, and even suggested other bike shops which might have a more suitable bike 🤯
Two tyres requested to be changed that i jad suppllied. I dropped the bike to them at the very start of day. I then had to follow up myself with a call at 3pm after no communication, to be told the rear maxle bolt is rounded and they would have to keep bike for remainder of bank holiday for a replacement to be fitted. I refused and collected bike to find the rear bearing now has 3mm of play. There was zero play in the bearing before taking the bike. Rudely spoken to and blamed it on an over tightened bolt keeping it clamped and therefore it will now have this amount of play with the correct torque tightness applied. Appalling and I will making all those aware of thier poor professionalism.
Within moments, I had fully working brakes. Am very pleased (and now much safer 😃)
“Spanners”
Not being a tech person, more of a simple cyclist I am not sure how to reply correctly in the string.
I am however so happy you found the time to comment. Grumbling would have resulted in making a statement of “oh my word, my VW dealership does not charge me 60 pounds an hour, and Trek charge 25 pounds an hour, however you may be in a prime time commercial deal that forces you to charge those rates”. Instead of grumbling we paid and made reference to buying a spanner, this is where I was told that I needed to know how to use a spanner and hence my reaction to the intelligence insult. I have spent significant amounts of money on cycles and never grumbled, only enjoyed. I wish you all the luck in your business as we all need two wheels.
