    I know a lot of cyclists are stuffy about them. I have used them a way back to get my old Boardman Team Carbon and from the shop nothing but praise for them, the costs and advice, especially what I know now.

    Is it really a bad thing we have a mainstream store committed to cycling like they are ? Dont they help to spread the word about our fantastic sport/hobby ?

    They would never be a place I go now and the LBS gets my cash (plus wiggle) but for entry level etc hat is wrong with them ?

    If you get bad service as I have read then you don;t go again or get your money back.

    I like popping into halfords
    I like popping into halfords occasionally as they often have some good mark downs, like the cateye whisper I saw for £25 the other day, a shame as I’d just picked up a lazer genesis for £25 a few days earlier from JEJames so I had to give it a miss.

    If the price is right, I don’t care who supplies the kit. Halfords is a mile from my house and on my way home from work, the LBS is double that and out of the way, plus it doesn’t open late, so I can never get to it because I work. I’d rather fix my bike and stay on the road than wait until the weekend so I can support my LBS, but use the car in the meantime.
