  • A customer brings a bike in for repair and the tyres are covered in dog shit?

    Any idea cliveo?

  • That's a big fat hell yeah!

  • Hell yes.

  • yes!
    or refuse to service it (unless an 'emergency).
    Is it clive's bike then?

  • Yes or refuse to service it. If you take a dirty car into a garage they will either charge extra or refuse to work on it.

  • What prav said

  • 100% yes.

    i either charge more, make them clean it off first, or at worst just refuse to do it.

  • yup.

  • doesn't dog shit make you go blind?

    therefore, it's a hazard, and the bikeshops Health and Safety rules would not allow potential blindness!

    so thats why they all end up in Halfrauds these "blind bicycle mechanics"

  • don't touch it unless it is in real need of work i.e. not safe to ride. then charge them a cleaning fee

    What you do in the privacy of your own workshop is your business......pervert.

  • hahaha Diable. So right.

  • yep clean it.....charge them

  • don't touch it unless it is in real need of work

    What? The poo?

  • I sent it down to the local car wash with the staff member who was late.

    As I know the customer I don't think a 6 4 a fiver deal from over the road is asking too much.

  • It does seem dangerous to tell the forum about this, Tim. You might give people ideas. ;)

  • my shop would tell the folk to bugger off and get it cleaned then come back

    +1 a toxic hazard:{)

  • Tynan wants his shit back..

  • A friend of mine lost an eye through dog-shit. Headed a football that had some on.
    He had to have a glass eye fitted. It was very good though.
    I didnt realise until it came out in conversation...

  • if we get unwashed jackets returned to us for warranty issues we have to send them back to the customer to be washed first. health and saftey madness.
    Not madness to charge more or make the clean it.

  • it's a shit job.

  • It's just a shit business, innit, MrSmith? We're all doomed anywayz up...

  • no one on this forum would surely take their bike to a shop to have a puncture repiared would they
    shame on you lot
