Can you explain how I would “Inactively” use an LBS? Can I passively purchase bike parts?
I find Mountain High in Pangbourne, Probably my nearest “Proper” LBS, friendly and helpful enough, but not the cheapest, and when you ring them up to ask about a specific part half the time they seem to re-direct you to AW cycles in Caversham as they don’t have an account… I’ve had the same answer for both Mavic and Hope parts in the past (Can’t be right), now I just don’t bother calling them, pop in every now and then to see what they’ve got in, seldom what I need, very seldom at I price I’d pay….
First look at CRC, have a browse on Google, Then double check AWs site, 99% of the time CRC get the order… Quite sad really.
Good Troll BTW…
