    Cycle express bicycles, great service... tui.

    Well not motorcycle related hence in rant or rave.

    Went into the bicycle shop today. (cycle express panmure)

    Backstory is i had gone in there last week and bought a new front tyre and thier last inner tube.

    Riding along today on the mighty BMX of doom (kawasaki green of course) i start hearing the tyre loosing air, ahh bollocks, sure enough a hole in tyre.

    So cycle express being local i returned to buy another tube (hoping they had ordered more since me buying thier last one the week prior)

    So after sitting there for a few minutes while he helps another customer (fine by me i had time)

    Me: "Hi i was wondering if you have any 20 inch tubes for my bmx please" **with tyre sitting there going PISHHHH loosing air at a reasonable rate**

    Him: "I don't know"

    Me: "Well ahh could you look" **noting the rack with all the tubes is within arms reach behind him**

    Him: "I'm running out the door in 2 minutes i can't be bothered sorting it"

    Me: "Okay then" **heads for the door**

    Him: "Hang on, what size is it"

    Me: "Doesn't matter now"

    Him: "I thought you needed a tube"

    Me: "I do, but you were a rude c**t and i do not buy things from rude c**nts, i will take my business elsewhere in future"

    Him: ""

    Okay so in principle a mere tyre tube $9.50 worth, so he wasn't loosing big money, but come on, the principle of it.

    I couldve sworn we used to have customer service in this country.

    Rant over.

    Keep up the top service cycle express.

    I've been in there heaps... Bruno has always been good to deal with... is he still there? You could also try Prestige on Allens Road, small shop, one man band and the best service I can remember getting anywhere. Won't go anywhere else now.

    Even if you feel the service and attitude is not satisfactory, resorting to obcenities and abusive language in return doesn't show you as being any better.

    To argue with a man who has renounced the use and authority of reason, and whose philosophy consists in holding humanity in contempt, is like administering medicine to the dead.
