Not much of a thread for this I guess, but the question is will the £50 be enough from the government do a lot for people who wants to repair their old bikes they haven’t use in a while? Personal experience says no.

Hmm. £50 is what we charge for our basic service so that’s the labour covered by the govt, so that’s something. I’ve had two NHS staff friends contact me today about it already.

To be fair we’ve had some absolute shitheaps bought in that need a lot more than £50 but it’s a start.

Ditto (well, £45).

It will go a long way, it mean they get a “free” service, or can pay for a general service for only £30 instead of £80.
