To be fair, all that work that does need doing can all be done on a lazy Sunday afternoon. I reckon 2 hours tops!

It's just having the time now! It would have been completed today if the nobs at my LBS hadn't dicked me about! |

He did that on purpose.. I'll murder the c**ts dog! Tell me you didn't let Pez put the front tyre on lol No, worse than Pez... SWINNO'S Thought I'd save myself a bit of time and pay them to make the wheels & tyres tubeless whilst I built up the rest of the bike at home. To cut a long story short, I went to collect the wheels and noticed they'd put the front tyre on the rear wheel and the back tyre on the front wheel. They said they wouldn't put it right so I kicked off a bit and they finally agreed to sort it. I went back a second time to collect them and they'd swapped the tyres round but left the front like that.. I told 'em I wasn't happy but didn't want them to touch the wheels again and that I'd take them elsewhere. They gave me a £20 voucher and a flap-jack to say sorry. This bloke is meant to be a professional... He's a fu***ng t**t.. |

How the actual fuck did they screw up so royally? They said I didn't specify which tyre was for which rim.. My argument was that it was plainly obvious which tyre was for which rim. Maybe that's just me though!? |

Sounds like they're just being facetious about it. Hoping to charge you double labour plus fitting to 'fix your mistake'.
