hmm, not sure. would be really useful if someone had made a list of bike shops in london. or even a map! yeah that'd be neat. then, like, linked to it from the main navigation bar of the site.

nah, who am i kidding?

You know what, that slipped my mind...... Thanks Matty

i live just round the corner from 'em. Have used them once, but found them over-priced, slow, and generally uninspiring. Peeps i know also have similar tales to tell of the place. I have used EverythingCycling down on Forest Road for a couple of small jobs and a service. Nice enough guy and a quick turnaround.

I wouldnt reccomend anyone trek all the way out to see it. Mind you if you have some time it is literally under Wood Street station. But yes alot of the stuff was overpriced like a cruddy road/racer frames being £190 etc and a lot of unipack stuff. however if you get talking you may be able to get a deal on frames/forks etc. I was offered a good deal by one of the mechanics on a frame but I didnt take it up.

I live not far from there and used both shops (Everything cycles and station bikes). But if your looking for advice on a fixed your better off riding down to BikeHub (new place) on lea bridge road or Heales cycles near hymes park station.

Could you mean bike hut?

edit

I meant bike shack. Total fail.

Likewise looked in on them (station cycles) a couple of times but wasn't convinced.

Everything cycling on forest road, is that the one with the dodgy drum kits and things too? Only was in there once and TBH wasn't at all convinced of them either. I was only looking for MTB brake cartridges but that seemed to cause alot of confusion. Bike Hub/Hut sounds interesting.. they open on sundays?

Bike Shack are on Lea Bridge rd, not sure if they are open on Sundays. Also a couple of shops in Leyton.
