Mechanic needed crystal palace area

[mrtEE]

Hi,

does anyone know of a good reliable mechanic in south east london (croydon area) that isnt too expensive? I need a chain and sprocket kit fitting.

Thanks.

It takes about half an hour and uses the mental capacity of a six year old...

Remember kids, bikes aren't like lego. You can't easily take a part from one bike and then fit it to another.

But what if he has the mental age of a 5 year old? He is from Croydon after all

Post in the South East section, someone could probably do it / show you how to do it for the price of a box of beers.

I understood it needs a chain tool to fit it? which I dont have.

If anyone wants to do it, will happily provide a crate of beer and assist. Can come to you also

P.S - I'm not actually from Croydon and I actually live in Crystal palace- which is a lot nicer then Croydon

I'm from Croydon and it saddens me to think people think Crystal Palace is posherer.

FUBAR.

I know how to do the C&S but I haven't the riveter either Sorry.

There are a few places not far from East Croydon station. Cant remember any names though.

LAM (London IAM) seem to recommend Dave Wilkins. He's in indi garage somewhere in the Penge (haha) area. I can try to get his number...

You're posibbly thinking of the bike shops in St James Road which are kind of round the back of East Croydon / Addiscum area.

You could google to see what is there but I can't vouch for them and I know INMOTO is round there but they are primarily a Aprillia dealers and not to be trusted as far as Wave2k says.

There is a independant garage/shop there which always has loads of 2nd hand bikes out the front but I dont remember the name.

Ah yeah, Inmoto... Allimc used to work for them...

There was Bonanza bikes I believe. Got the ER5 from there. Not a particularly superb place, most bikes were over priced. But being a n00b I didn't know much to comapre to.

Got the details for Dave Wilkins' 020 8249 7940. The garage is on Jasmine Grove, Penge.
