I Needed to get my breaks replaced and went there to sort them out on weekends since I was busy, turns out he needed to leave an hour early and there goes my time travelling there believing he was professional enough to work the full hours he put on google maps, he also said it would cost me £50 to fully replace the breaks but then when I come back a few weeks later it all of a suddenly increased to £120 because they were “hydraulic” and then I was horribly thrown out of the shop after I asked him what was wrong with my chains and he said it would cost him a full tenner to adjust my bike’s chain which only takes a few minutes when I reacted at the price asking why he decided to tell me to go to Halfords thinking that just because I didn’t spend a ridiculous £120 on breaks my tenner didn’t mean anything, I don’t think he’s an honest person selling things at a insane price neither is he reasonable and definitely doesn’t seem like he wants to do his work, honestly do not go to his shop his answers on google reviews say everything 😂
