  • Norwich fixed shopping update. Cycle Repubic (owned by Halfords) in city centre expensive wank-parlour with little of anything except Dura Ace. Unless you need a tube in a hurry mid-city.

    I don't suppose you bothered to even think about asking then, otherwise you would have found that they hold some fixed bits and can get almost anything within a couple of working days. How many shops in East Anglia do you think carry fixed cranksets? the call for them is very very limited and not good business to tie up money in gear that may or may not sell this year. May I suggest that you try ordering one or look on ebay etc

    Yes they are owned by Halfords, however each member of staff is an avid cyclist, one is an ex pro racer, one is a 2nd cat racer with Olympic cyclists in their family, the mechanic used to turn a spanner for a couple of pro/am teams (mountain bike and roadies) so sorry but I think they know more about bikes than most who go in there.
