    The one just north of Street & Sport (on the corner Manchester & Welles St) I think dealt with Moto Guzzi. They also shared with Sportzone also after the September quake as I remember a few new Guzzies in there. Can't remember what it was called though.
    Shaken, not stirred in the shakey city!

    "Not too many bike shops left in the broken city. ?? "
    More like not to many shops left in the CBD but as for bike shops...
    Seems to me that the majority of bike shops are still operating or have now re opened though some have moved if you look for them.
    There's several down Moorhouse Ave now too.
