Hi,
I shall be visiting Brisbane and Perth over the next week and would like some recommendations on reliable and competitively-priced bike shops at both locations. I am looking for the usual bike stuff - jerseys, accessories, parts etc. Your recommendations are appreciated. Thanks. Kent |

I am looking for the usual bike stuff - jerseys, > accessories, parts etc. I would like to give my enthusiastic support to Greg Stoyles Cycles, 143 Walter Rd Morley WA ph 9375 1340. I bought my Christmas bike and a new bike for my daughter and he gave me an excellent price, including knocking off another $50 that he really didn't have to. His shop is fairly small and focussed on low-end stuff, but he will go the extra yards to get in anything you need. Plus he is just a really nice guy. Unlike the complete pratt I spoke to at The Bicycle Entrepreneur. |

Competitively priced bike shops are not known in Brisbane - they differentiate on marketing and service. You might get mates rates if you are a mate, but not as a blow-in. |

Bicycle Rider's in Morningside, Brisbane look after me pretty well - good service, negotiable on prices. 600 Wynnum Rd; 07 3899 8232. Depends on who you talk to there too, of course. Owner is Chris, good man to deal with in my experience. DB |

Maybe you look the part. I got the feeling that I would have been taken more seriously if I had been wearing lycra. And I was asking about kids bikes, so obviously not a real cyclist. Or maybe I just got the one knob in the shop. Or maybe it was just a bad day for him, I dunno... |
