Since I’ve discovered that headsets go in fine with a mallet and a chopping board I’ve used them less and less!
I have a good LBS nearby – Dales Cycles in Glasgow.
Staff are pretty knowledgable and friendly. I try and use them as often as I can for bits and pieces – cables, lube, tyres.
Its also good to fall back on their workshop when I get stuck with something like stuck pivot axles when I was doing the bearings on my Blur frame. However I genuinely enjoy fixing stuff myself so I would only ever use their workshop for these types of jobs.
If you have a good LBS then support them you never know when you might need them.
