Quick bike service in Tipp/Limerick

    I've a Giant Defy 1 since June with roughly 1000k done on it. There's a rattling nice coming in the last week from the rear. Sounds like the spokes or something....Don't know much about bikes! Also the front and rear derailleuer need to be slightly adjusted. The shop where I bought it are useless to service bikes and he doesn't know much about them. I've been told this by a few people in a local cycling club. He will order any bike in at a great price but just gives it to you then without checking it over.
    Anyway, can anyone recommend someone in the Tipp/Limerick area that would have a look at it for me...I'm guessing it would only take half an hour max...

    I've had work done on my bike at TriBikes in Raheen, Limerick and I'd recommend them. The shop is located not too far from the M7 motorway so it could be handy for you depending on where you're located.

    I actually called in this morning to have my front derailleur looked at as it was very hard to shift into the big ring. It was looked at straight away and a new cable was installed in less than 10 minutes. I was impressed at the service.

    Just for the record, I'm in no way affiliated with them.

    Ya I know the place, across from the South Court. Mind me asking how much they charged for this?

    I was charged €10 which I was happy with as he did it there in front of me and it saved me going back to collect it.

    They have a price list in the shop so you could call them for an idea of what it will cost you.
