Hello,

I'm after a kind soul who can help my brother remove a bafang from his bike in sheffield today or tomorrow.

Job needs bottom bracket tool, and crank puller, plus allen keys and spanners.

Willing to throw you a few quid, apparently bike shops refusing to do it due to 'liability'!! not entirely sure what use a LBS is if they won't do mechanical work and be paid - unimpressed with Sheffield LBS's

of course if you are a LBS and will do this, please let me know that too.

I'm in Edin so can't help.

Please let me know - thank you kind people..

Andy

WTF is a bafang 🙂 ? Try Butterworth's if he's anywhere near Hillsborough - top guys.

yeah Alex will take that one on. I wouldn't be surprised if James at Bike Garage was happy to take a look too.

Sorted now - thanks for your help - I await the story as to why some shops refused...

Maybe some lbs don't want owt to do with ebikes?  If they're not experienced with ebikes then maybe they're worried about damaging expensive parts and aren't willing to take the risk.

Plus, if you've bought a motorbike, shouldn't you book it in with honda or yamaha? 😉
