Not really cycling weather today, or at least it isn’t if you are just a
leisure cyclist. We can certainly tell
the outside temperature or whether it’s wet or dry by the amount of refurbished
bikes we sell.
At this time of the year our sales do decline, as does the amount of service work we get in. However we do have a hardcore of regular
cyclists who rely on our workshop for their repairs, so there is always work to
do.
So far today the workshop has done quite a lot of work on one bike. We’ve
replaced a chain and cassette replaced all the cabled, trued the wheels and
replaced the brake pads. Also on the go
is repairs to a Giant MTB which include replacing the front mech – which was
only ordered yesterday afternoon but arrived first thing this morning. And on
top of all this our volunteers have serviced a couple of stock bikes, which
having been checked by Tim are now out for sale. Who says working in a bike shop is boring!!!
