Being a complete idiot, I now need a part replaced/repaired on my bike, can anyone recommend a good place to go in this part of Fife/Dundee? Really would like to use somewhere that aren't going to overcharge for labour either, bit skint right now! Thanks :)

I had to replace my bike seat this year after somebody stole it, and Spokes in town was fine. They also did some necessary maintenance on the bike, replacing some old wires, oiling the chain, etc. The prices for parts, labour etc were quite reasonable. The bike runs far better now and the whole service cost me about 40 quid, well worth it I thought as it was the first service it's had in the five years I've owned it.

£45 in spokes got me a full maintenance, haven't had any problems since. They even changed my full brake system because the one I had last year was pretty dire. I don't see any reason to go elsewhere to be honest.
