Making a bike shop work for you, or something like that…

Cool post and its good to get other perspectives,

where I disagree is on 2 points although I do everything on my own bikes.

 

1) If I take my bike in to be serviced and it is not done correctly my bike should be first in line when I take it back. I would have been out of use for longer because of the store. This is typical in any said business.

2) If it is not done properly it is someones fault and blame lies there in even though it was a mistake. It is just a bike, but if a doctor makes a mistake do you just accept it and move on.

 

1) You are spot on in the case of a "send back", although if you bring your bike for a first time service you will be queueing like the rest of the "normal people".

2) True, and blame is usually accepted and the "send back" is fixed free of charge, usually with some discount.

 

As a matter of interest- how many cases have you heard of doctors getting the diagnosis wrong, and how many of them have paid fines or even been sued? Have you been cured immediatly with the medicine the doctor prescribed to you? Every single time? Let's compare apples with apples here...

Sorry, sorry, sorry! What I meant was- yes sir- you are right
