    Just came across this place online. Anyone know this place? It's in Churchtown, D14.

    It's down a lane off Beaumont Drive which is just around the corner from the Bottle Tower pub.

    Is that what its called,

    Its certainly got charecter, went there once with a friend who tired out a second hand Dawes Hybrid. The guy who was there (not the usually guy) 'fixed' the front derailer which was jammed by spraying it with WD-40 and then hitting it with a golf club head (a 3 wood I think). The place seems to seel second hand golf clubs too. My friend didn't go for it in the end, but I thought 150 euros for a second hand Dawes Discover 301 wasn't bad, much better than any BSO you'd get for that price. I've only been there a few times but if you're looking for an old racer to turn into a fixie you might find it there.

    Dingy old place, might be good for a bit of bargain hunting though.

    Must call in for a gander after my exams.

    Other options locally are Joe Daly just down the road in dundrum and a little further north is your man in Rathgar(name escapes me now).
