tipus Posted May 16, 2005 Report Share Posted May 16, 2005 (edited) Hi. I'm from norway and i'm going to london in the summer. And since it's so fookin expensive here in norway, i would like to visit some bike shops in london. Do any of you know about some good shops i can visit? A shop with good assortment and reasonable prices? Thanks :lol: Edited May 16, 2005 by tipus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tartridge Posted May 16, 2005 Report Share Posted May 16, 2005 Are you looking for trials parts/components? If so, you'll have a hard job finding them at normal bike shops :mellow: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing beats norway in price :mellow: :P The assortment is so bad, and expensive. I'm also buying some parts for my friends. :D So they don't need to get their wallet raped :P Edited May 16, 2005 by tipus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N.Wood Posted May 16, 2005 Report Share Posted May 16, 2005 Both Bromley Bikes and Evans' are pretty poor for trials bits. I would have thought your best bet would be to have some stuff delievered to your hotel/mates/relative's address from some mail order companies :mellow: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScotchDave Posted May 16, 2005 Report Share Posted May 16, 2005 Why don't you taqlk to tartybikes or the like, pay for the stuff and then have it delivered to wherever your going to stay. :mellow: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are 2 stores in Waterloo, one is right opposite Waterloo East station (find the MacDonalds, walk acorss the road, there is a Sainsbury's, and it should be staring you in the face!) and the other is just round the corner :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tipus Posted May 16, 2005 Author Report Share Posted May 16, 2005 (edited) Yeah! Thanks. I would take a look at the Evans store :S :mellow: Are they cheap? :D Edited May 16, 2005 by tipus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tipus Posted May 16, 2005 Author Report Share Posted May 16, 2005 (edited) I'll take that as a no :S It's probably cheaper then norway anyway :mellow: Edited May 16, 2005 by tipus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N.Wood Posted May 17, 2005 Report Share Posted May 17, 2005 I'll take that as a no :- It's probably cheaper then norway anyway :S ← Yeh take a look, they'll be chaper than Bromley Bikes anyways... :turned: And from Victoria to Bromley South station is about half an hour on the train, and then you've got a walk up Bromley highstreet and along the road to the bike shop, so it's relitively far compared to the various Evans stores dotted around London. There should be a map on their website, try Evanscycles.co.uk or something similar :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ScotchDave Posted May 17, 2005 Report Share Posted May 17, 2005 I still think that finding out where your staying and ordering from a mail order shop is the best idea. :turned: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
