    Isn't it ironic, I work in a bike shop and have to buy elsewhere.

    Even that crotchety old bugger in accessories. But going local is a big plus if it breaks.

    Help with minor/service stuff I go to Kerry at Motohaus.
    Both places i find very fair.
    Stu,as you will know,is now at Bikesport in Waimauku (soon to be moving to Helensville).
    I bought my bike from them and they certainly talk the talk re: customer service and good deals.

    Have to say I've always had good service from Boyds, use them rather than the zuki dealer next door...

    Thats the most annoying thing, inconsistency in service.
