    As per the title..

    Need to get a service done (usual cable tightening etc + small buckle in wheel) and would be handy to get it done near work.. although I will go out my way in no where near by.

    Thanks!

    edit.. sorry.. board Gais Energy Theatre... :D

    There's also Dublin Bike Works, one of the owners is Karma round these parts, and is a great mechanic

    Brought my bike in here to adjust the gears and brakes as I wasnt faving much luck.

    A guy with a beard did it there and then and wouldnt take any cash.

    Only took him two minutes to be fair and a simple job but bodes well I think.

    Got my first second hand bike there when I was a student, good old fashioned bike shop.

    Cheers all!
