LBS (langsett cycles in shuff) sorted me out the exact headset i wanted (at the same price as CRC) yesterday, then at the last minute an odd sized seatpost for cheaps this morn too.
And even knocked off a few quid both times cos im in a local cycling club. Good times.
I tend to knock the bike shops in shuff a bit (some bad experiences) but was chuffed with this experience!
Yeah its my LBS and they always sort me out with a few quid off.
I tried EBC the other week for the 3rd and final time, they didn't have anything in stock and didn't know that cassette's came in 11-34. They actually sent me to JE James to get a couple of olives and inserts form my hose shortening.
Last time with them for me.
Langsetts is top notch.
sad that folks go to je james instead. rarely have i felt less welcome in a shop than there!
Yeah, i only went to EBC because i was over that side of town, i live on Leppings Lane so Langsetts is 2 minutes away and always helpful.
