In Newcastle and plenty of bike shops, however:
Edinburgh Bikes – rude; don’t listen or care; unhelpful – with the exception of 1 member of staff who is always busy – not surprisingly.
Evans (@ Metrocentre) – staff not very helpful and did not know an awful lot about mountain bikes – maybe I was just unlucky?.
MSteels – useless buerk – ‘nah mate you definitely need this size I’ll order it for you……’ not even sat on a bike that size to see?????? No-one else around to save me.
Cycle centre – couldn’t give a XXXX for anything else…..
Where to try next???? Help needed because like a lot of folks, I guess, I’d like to talk to a human who is knowledgable and cares about what I need not the sales target…….it’s not like I don’t want to spend my money in your shop.
Any recommendations please??
