i've posted some stuff recently about how shit my local shop is, so i thought i's even the balance.
KUDU bikes in Hawes are fantastic, good bloke who's not 18, lots of stock and just generally a good set up. i'll be going back for sure!
Recomended!
I am pretty happy with LBS alpinebikes, it's a chain (no pun intended) but always seem to be good to sort you out - not cheapest but good service, also goes for Wheelcraft in the campsies (near glasgow) its unique, anyone else that goes there will know what I mean.
Always worth praising the good shops for a change, fed up with 'CRC are pants' type posts - CRC are good too IMO
Kudu bikes...next time you visit ask them if they know that their ad in MBR has been offering for sale 2006 demo bikes for the last 2 years..perhaps it's time they updated it.
