Hi all,
out on the club spin today I was surprised to hear the prices being charged by local bike shops to replace parts like chains and cassettes.
If anyone is thinking their bike needs looking at, repaired, new parts added or just replaced I am more than happy to offer advice and help.
For a guideline a Shimano Ultegra cassette should cost about €50 a chain is about €30 and a bottom bracket is €30
To to replace these parts is about 60 mins work when done carefully.
Brake block cost about €10 front and back and should take about 30 minutes to replace.
Gear and brake cables are about €5-€10 euro and should not take more than 20 minutes to replace
more than happy to help any club members - feel free to email me chrisjbigley@gmail.com
