Wanted: Chainring Bolt

Mine pinged off on the way to cambridge yesterday, does anyone have one spare i could buy off them?

running shimano with a 1/8 chainring if this makes a difference..

planning on heading to Polo, so could bring money/beer for payment?

I've got a spare you can have but not sure if I can make polo. What time does it go on until?

erm not sure how long it goes on for, but could potentially meet you somewhere, is it the kind of thing i could get easily from an evans?

yeah, evans stock them for something like £6 for a bag of five. I'm in Stoke Newington and have to be here until about 4pm. Otherwise PM me your address and I'll stick it in the post tomorrow.

cheers will give an evans a shot, especially as i now need a spoke as well and if not i'll get back to you.

was on way to evans, but went past on your bike in london bridge so i thought i'll just stop there and have an ask.

so lady on the reception to the workshop popped out the back and got me a couple of spokes, and ask the mechanic to come out and help me with the chainring bolt, he came out took a look and went off to get one for me.

he then proceeded to fit one for me, and check the others to see if they were tight enough, turns out the bike mechanic had done a bodge job and pout bolts on that are too long, the mechanic said he didn't have any more to give me but also recommended evans as they might.

really, really impressed with the service received, they were really busy in there but to go to the trouble of sorting me out with a bolt, and not charging me for it by the way, and to check the others, is really impressive for what is quite a commercial, chain like shop.

thought i'd share this little one with anyone who cares to read it, as i always think that when you get out of the ordinary service from a shop, good or bad, it should be mentioned!
