Good Bike Mechanics in North London/Hornsey/Harringay?
I bought a Cube Attain GTC Pro Disc 2017 Carbon Road Bike (https://www.rutlandcycling.com/bikes/road-bikes/cube-attain-gtc-pro-disc...) last year and love it. It's my first road bike coming from the dahon folder i used to commute on... but there's always something wrong with it.
When i cycle standing up (to go up hills or away from lights) it sounds like the spokes are being strummed, and the shifters - Shimano ST-RS505s - sometimes don't catch, and the front derailleur won't shift up from the small ring at all - the shifter just slips time and time again.
I've taken the bike to my local cube stockist for a service (Evans) and none of these problems seems to have been fixed.
Can anyone recommend a good bike shop/mechanic i can take it to in north london? I'm near Hornsey/Crouch End/Turnpike Lane/Muswell Hill...
Thanks in advance for the help
Dave

That little car is great - just what's needed for most single occupant journeys (maybe not so much in the rain).

So I don't drink, because drinking is defined as drinking water, not water mixed with ethanol.
