Anyone know the list price of a Hope ceramic bb? I asked for a Hope bb to be fitted to my bike and the shop has fitted a ceramic one instead of a stainless without asking ( i assumed they would of fitted a stainless one) and are charging me £140 ; 110 for the bb, 15 for the gxp adaptor and 15 labour.
Just scouting on the net and £110 is a lot for the bb.
Any ideas on what I should do? I waiting on a call from the bike shop boss to discuss further but hopefully some has had a similar experience and advise on what to do?
