I'm not an Evans hater. But I just tried to gt some rotor bolts and was looked at like I'd just asked for a pre-prepared crack pipe. After repeating my request I was told I might be able to order online but since he didn't know what they were he couldn't be certain...To be fair if I'd had a bit more patience he could have looked on the system, but if I going to buy online I'll probably do it myself.

So...now that my LBS has closed down (sadly due to the arrival of Evans...)does anyone know of a shop that'll be open tomorrow where I can buy the following:

Rotor bolts
Chainring bolts
Chainring
Chain
Singlespeed spacers

Cheers

Cycle Surgery generally know everything Evans never knew about customer service...

Stanley Bridge Cycles in Waltham Abbey are excellent, not sue if they are open Sunday.

Condor isn't the best for anything mtb related. Good otherwise, though.
CS at Spitalfields would get my vote, as they specialise in mtb stuff.

mosquito bikes is awesome, I have mentally spent thousands in there - my first point of call when I win the lottery. Never met such knowledgeable bike shop staff.

(ok maybe not the first but way up there!)

They will sell you bolts - but I bet you'll come out wanting a whole lot more ๐Ÿ™‚

ibnchris, gutted I moved back to Wales from there two years ago - the fact that a big arse Evans opened across the road probably didn't help! ๐Ÿ™
