If you decide to use them ensure several things , before you even let their mechanics touch your bike ensure they have the correct job sheet! , and the parts in stock , I had a nuclear disagreement this morning when last week booking it in I asked for Fork Seals AND
BUSHES , Sickpup makes it very clear bushes are to be changed when changing fork seals.
And i went to great lengths to inform them about bushes , at which 3 people booking it in all agreed bushes would be done also...(The young beardy guy , David and the gay mechanic who isn't ginger)
I booked it in , 50 minutes later I get called , bushes need doing mate.....
me WTF , I bloody well asked you for bushes you said yes , at which the old guy Alan tries to rip me off £200 to put my forks back together or not take my bike away at all and arguing at length and him trying to tell me £200 is a "nominal fee" , he calls around
to the bloke who booked me in , who isn't in , taking up an hour trying to contact him and he calls back and says oh I can't remember if I did order bushes or not.
At which he grudgingly spends the next 2 hours putting my forks back the way they were.
ie verry leaky such that I have to bag them to protect my front brake.
So ESB bolton , gets a thumbs down from me and I shall never use them again for anything on the flip side I've found a new mechanic , since my last hobbyist more than business man mechanic died. ____________________ Spain 2008France 2007Big one 2009 We all die.
