i've a friend who needs to go get some work done on their Hybrid, they also want to buy some SKS full guards too.

anyone?

Red kite in Shirley always used to be good. Not been there for a while though.

there's red kite in Shirley I've never used it but had some good reports from work colleagues

She went into Red Kite but felt very patronised, one young chap commented that " you don't look much like a cyclist" on being asked a question. so, any others?

no need for that

The only other places i know are in central birmingham, evans and cycle surgery ect

There's a small one on Coleshill high street but no others in Solihull

She went into Red Kite but felt very patronised

same old shop then 🙁

i can't recommend any other shop in the area though, that's why i travel to Cheltenham Cycles

Scott's cycles Stratford Road – brilliant bike shop

Hijack, drinkmoreport have you posted those tyres I paid for 3 weeks ago yet? Thanks

Mike Vaughan in Kenilworth or Cycle Studio in Stratford. I use both and very happy with them.

I think Red Kite in Solihull is an excellent shop, been many times and always have been more than helpful.
