    Anyone know if they're open. I know they're closed Mondays but I swung by Tuesday during the week with a wheel and the place was all shuttered up. Rang and left a message but heard nothing back since.

    He could just be off for a few days. I live right beside it so I’ll check on Tuesday and Will post up here if I see it open.

    Perhaps give your location to make it easier.

    Cliff in Harry's gets a lot of recommendations , as does Darragh of Bee Cycles and lukasz (unsure of spelling) of Apex Cycles too.

    Guy in the shop in blanchardstown village too whom I always forget the name of I believe is well recommended.
    Justin in Cyclezone?

    Good point. I'm in Maynooth. I can't do anything until we are out out being locked down, but I'll bring them anywhere around the surrounding counties (within reason) to have them done properly

    Thanks all - I got in touch with Lukasz in Apex Cycles because he is is in Co Kildare after which they promptly un-locked us. Anyway, dropped them off this morning. Totally sound guy and clearly knows his stuff, so I have no doubt it will be a top job.
