  • Would they be ok with handing them a cleaned set up and replacing the fluid? There is none in there now.

    As £60 is a joke when I can buy a complete sram level bike set up for £44 delivered.

    The low price of new parts doesn't make paying a mechanic properly for their experience, equipment, overheads etc "a joke".

  • No, but it's also not the responsibility of consumers to keep mechanics in work if they can get the same result cheaper by buying new

  • It was more that I asked the price for a fluid replacement on a front brake nothing else, the price went from £10 to £60. On a front line only, when a pair brakes that use dot brake fluid are less than that price.

    The brake I have is Shimano, I can buy a new syringe and i have the tube already. So not excessive, I have a kit somewhere but mislaid long ago. Not even sure if the brake system hasn't been damaged by being part filled.
