As far as I know, the place is still in business, for very small and generally undefined values of 'in'.</p> <p>I still remember buying Tioga tyres there, pre-Bain, when it was Claymore Cycles. But I sort of gave up after it took a year for the Captain to not get some Suntour thumbies in for me. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=12644#post-150062 Wed, 23 Apr 2014 21:58:09 +0000 Stepdoh 150062@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Gotta take up the slack now urbancyclist has 'given up' ;-) </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=12644#post-150061 Wed, 23 Apr 2014 21:52:51 +0000 SRD 150061@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>That guy's a regular poster now. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=12644#post-150060 Wed, 23 Apr 2014 21:50:02 +0000 Stepdoh 150060@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>I still say this is a joke perpetuated against the cycling noobs, as it looks like the last customer was the guy from the Yellow Pages ad. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=12644#post-149933 Wed, 23 Apr 2014 10:01:31 +0000 kaputnik 149933@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Is it still in business does anyone know?</p> <p>Last posts on this here forum about it seemed to conclude the opening hours were along the lines of Brigadoon and communications with the shop were a bit like the Kling Klang studio.</p> <p>Chap at work lived near the owner as a youngster and used to help him out at the workshop. Wanted to know if he was still in business so he could drop by and say hello. </p>
