  • Yes we build bikes, it’s £60 and there’s a 4-6 week wait.

    I’ve had a trike booked in to be build from a box (came from China).

    It came in two separate box and nearly 90% in pieces.

    End up texting customer to raise build labour from £45 to £100 and that’s me being generous.

  • £45? Fuck. That. noise. 100 minimum. That's time you're not gonna get back. If you're good at something, never do it for free/cheap.

    @TM We're sending bikes in the giant boxes, and posting instructions with them on how to twist bars and put pedals on. I'm about a dozen conversations down where people have installed the forks backwards.

  • You can always count on the British public to ignore colour coded L and R stickers. It’s no wonder we’re shit at sports many of us can’t even match colour coded dots up.

    my pedals fallen off

    Is it the right or left?

    how do I know?

    Is it the chain side or none chain side?

    chain side

    That’s gonna be expense

    😢

    Even £100 is cheap for a trike build up from a frameset, took me two and a half hours to try and modified it enough to make it safe to ride!
