Brick Lane Bikes (BLB) Bike Shop

"in the market for"

fuck's sake it's a two-bob part, not a house.

HAAAAAA repped*

What's your views on jumping red lights?

depends if there is a soft landing on the other side.

hippy?

I dont often get out east, so i thought i'd take the opportunity to go into BLB and shop 14 for the first time today as i would be in bethnal green.

I will be in the market for a 19t cog for a freewheel in a couple of weeks time so thought i'd pop in to see prices/if they stock em. I asked the shop assistant guy in BLB if they had any and when it was clear what i was after and that they didn't have any he quickly lost interest in the conversation and turned his back on me in what i consider a rude manner.

Surely in the current financial climate they cant have that many trusafarians/hipsters throwing money at them to be so rude to walk in customers? Surfice to say i wont be going in there again

fuck em then end of, i stopped complaining about em a while ago and simply ride past EVERY time now - fuck that shit...

Ha ha, double repped!

You never know though, the cost of bike parts might stop going up, there might be a crash!

surely a crash would only increase demand for new parts?

hippy?

Didn't notice until I'd posted it but was thinking the same thing myself. The hippster is omnipresent!

Um, I think this is how it works, but I'm no economist. Depends how scratched they are.

Edit: Available credit comes into it too of course.

Lol classic! You having a long night?

hippy?

Nope, the shirt isn't pink.

Nope, the blouse isn't pink.

I've heard there is a girl working in there who has a fanny AND a willy.

long day.

can't shout and swear at kids, so I thought I'd come on here and swear at adults instead.

i'm sorry, i was just toying with the double meaning of the word crash in the context of a bike forum. hilarious i know. Despite the best attempts of Mr. Bastow and Mrs. Alfrey, my academic knowledge of economics is little or none.

And has piercings in both

There are adults on here?

Piercings?

Fucking FREAK!

And has piercings in both

and tattoos. probably something really original like a chainring or a crankset with wings.

Ha sorry, it was meant in the OP and I got that! I was trying to extend the joke, it didn't work though did it. Sorry.

Suffice to say my 'available credit' has been reigned in by the other half.

God I forgot, I heard BLB are opening a new store! And it's going to be a 'concept store', whatever that is.

BLB have terrible customer service, but when it comes down to it, they know their stuff and can be really helpful. My advice is to always walk in with a bike, they don't ignore that way.

Here's a picture!

There's still no excuse for piece-of-shit service. I've been mugged off by nicer car mechanics.
