Hi
I've got a front and rear triangle for a Evil Uprising and all the bits and bobs to put together but I don't have the right tools I can bleed brakes, swap bushings etc but that's about my level.
Now it's been with Creation in Radcliffe-on-trent for 6 months and as far as I know they have done nothing so does anyone know of anyone able to build it up?
Obviously reluctant to give it to Evans or suchlike and I know Langdale Lightweights are more road biking
Any recommendations warmly received
Thanks

Cycle Inn, Beeston. Always cracking service in there - the owner's been running it for 30+ years. Asked him the other day how he competed against the likes of Evans / Cycle Republic, and his response was that his mortgage rests on the quality of his work, unlike the mechanics employed in a larger bike shop, so he makes sure he gets it right!

I'd second the Cycle Inn in Beeston, good work, reasonably priced, pretty chatty and knows his stuff.

Langsdale light weights recommended the bike shop in Arnold to me when I asked them about a mtb issue.

I fixed it myself so can't comment on the shop.
