Any recommendations for a good bike shop in central London other than Evans? Have a mate who needs CX & MTB serviced. After a honest shop, that won't take the piss. Thanks Aj.
Cycle Surgery?
Maybe Swift, although they are road oriented:
On Your Bike:
bikefix, although no mtbs, but lots of other variety so maybe:

brixton cycles:

Action Bikes. The one near me has given me loads of freebies and the mechanic is happy to show me how to do things too. It's always gonna depend on the shop manager though. When you do pay, they are just as pricey as everyone else.
condor cycles on greys inn road. they are really good and helpful
The London Bicycle workshop.
These guys are ace mechanics

My picks;
Cycle Surgery Victoria - My local, and superb spannerwranglers.
CS Holborn - Karl is a legend with a spanner in hand.
Brixton - Lovely people, great workshop.
Condor - Not really for the MTB scene, but very good for the CX.

Cycle Surgery isn't bad; I've found for buying stuff they're not v cheap, but they are friendly and know a little.
Evans is almost the exact opposite - can get some awesome deals on bikes, but the staff generally couldn't give a monkey's.
On Your Bike is good, I found, if you're in London Bridge. When I went there regularly they didn't seem to sell Specialized stuff though. Wonder if they ever sold that Pace FS frame...

They did. I helped by steering someone on RB towards it. The build was, to put it mildly.....STUNNING! Will try and find a pic.
