mark is not perhaps misserable but hard to read, hence is he listening when your talking to him, (eyes looking everywhere except at you).
there is a girl in there that is good to talk with. well stocked shop yet quite high priced, but try some bartering.

you could try Sowerby brothers cycles in Mirfield, not to far from bike shed/ very good shop with great staff. cannondale, specialized, fisher, Turner, intence dealers.

ive allways found them ok but very expensive compared to others .
i would allways call them first as it is quite a small shop but a tardis inside.

They always have cove frames when I've been in there. It's in New Mill though as far as I know, not Huddersfield.

I thought Bikeshed was in Scissett, it's in the Hudds area but far out, nearer Denby Dale. I've popped in a few times for energy bars and the like. Remember seeing a fair number of Cove frames there, although if it was me I'd buy a 2nd hand one as they're not exactly cheap (I paid £140 for a decent 2nd hand Stiffee frame, which I'm very impressed with by the way).

soz, you're right it's in Scissett, I knew it was one of those towns I drive through from Holmfirth to Wakey.
