    I live in D15, and usually take my bike here. Not close, but excellent work. He has been known to travel, but possibly too busy now - suggest you PM him if interested.

    Otherwise, I'd go to Staggs in Lucan if you haven't already.

    I assume you've checked that your cassette is on properly and freehub bearings are not worn (hope this doesn't insult your intelligence ;) ).
