This may be obvious, but don't ever go to Cyclelife on Stokes Croft. Just had a very bad experience with the 'mechanic' fitting my lockring with a hammer despite me asking him if he had the right tool and that I had a hammer and screwdriver myself. Just enforces my view that I'm going to buy the tools and do the fixing myself in future. In general, bike shops suck, why is this?
