Value for Money

Pros:

  • "Great after sales service. They checked the bike over for me after two weeks on the road for free!"
  • "They saved the day by removing them so I was able to put the bike in the box, which I also got from them, and ship it on scheduled time."
  • "Recently had a safety check and adjustment and new mirror, reflector and lock fitted, they were helpful and it was good value for money."
  • "They fitted my bike in immediately and offered a free coffee whilst I waited."
  • "Excellent prices, actually beat the online price I paid for my bike."
  • "All kinds are seemingly taken care of with equal attention and reasonable pricing."
  • "Repair prices are more than reasonable."

Cons:

  • "The only reason it’s not 5 stars is because I was surprised by a £5 charge for 2 minutes work."
  • "They also charged me £1 to use the pump for my tire which most shops you can use it for free."
  • "Super expensive. They charged me almost £20 to fix a puncture when I can get it fixed in Wandsworth for £9.80."
  • "I left they charge a premium for labor which is subjective and depends on workmanship and skill, however for a standard change of tire/tube Evans charge £10 labor vs £16 labor at Flag."
  • "Once an item had left the shop, no refund or exchange was permitted."
