CityCyclingEdinburgh was launched on the 27th of October 2009 as "an experiment".
IT’S TRUE!
CCE is 14years old!
Well done to ALL posters
It soon became useful and entertaining. There are regular posters, people who add useful info occasionally and plenty more who drop by to watch. That's fine. If you want to add news/comments it's easy to register and become a member.
RULES No personal insults. No swearing.
Good service from them again today.
My crank was loose on my way to work, so I diverted there to see what they could do, as my puny mini-tool wasn't up to the job.
Greeted by a friendly bloke who took a look, then came out and tightened everything up there and then. No humming or hawing, no "too busy", no "need to book it in". All for the nominal sum of £2, with the advice to pop back if it continued to cause grief.
Highly recommended.
They stuck a new tyre on the back of my town beastie today wih minimal fuss (rear wheel has a solid hub and needs a spanner to remove, so I wanted to put a puncture resistant tyre on to reduce sweary episodes; planned to chnage it myself but since they had time...) - allowing me to have lovely vietnamese style rice rolls for lunch while they did it and then pedal back to the office in the sun. I was happy!
I still go there as one of their guys is the best at tracking down random creaky noises I get form my roadie.
Only negative is everytime I come in with a BB issue they say ... "hmmm there is play in the pedals - is it not that"
It's always the BB
I can confirm. They are awesome people =)
Bikeworks has been very good to us over the years. Magnatom and I cleared out their range of bells on Friday pre-pop.
