Thats been shut for 6 or 7 years probably more - don't know why, only ever used them a couple of times.

Just beat me to it - not sure if it's that long, but definitely 3+ years. I think the position out of town wasn't great and there is quite a lot of LBS competition in Exeter.

is that oldschool LBS in Whipton still open..? that used to be like walking into someone's grandads shed when I was a kid..

'what's that bey..? you wants a whaaaa..!? what you'm after is a thrutch drift column from this 'ere 1907 Pendlecombe Superior..'

I used to love it.. and my bike was always repaired in the end..
