I've been in Holloway twice and the person behind the counter has been pretty condescending. Twice I've wanted to spend money there but felt put off by the attitude and decided against it.
Last time I went in I needed some advice on my girlfriend's bike. It's nothing special, it's a cheap bike. The rear wheel was binding and I wanted advice whether they thought it was the freewheel or the hub and the response I got was, "It's a bit of a shit hub so there's not much to say about it." Thanks, if I wanted an opinion on the quality of the hub I would have asked.
