Campagnolo Servicing

[Sandro]

Please can you guys point me in the direction of a bike shop that really know how to  service Campy. I bought a bike recently with a 10 speed Chorus groupset and it needs a basic service and check. The guys I just took it to actually made the gears worse, not here to name and shame I know everyone is super busy at the moment and probably taking on more repairs than they can manage properly - just want to get it sorted properly. JHB or PTA. Thanks!

Proper Campy service centers in SA are non-existent if you own ride Campy you need to know someone who knows someone or teach yourself.

The older stuff is actually fairly easy to service yourself if you some mechanical aptitude. There are some good videos on youtube.

Yep I been servicing and repairing the older Campy components for years - But getting parts locally is another story - I used to get from a guy in USA sadly that contact is no more - So i just stopped - As much as I love Campy, they really suck at supplying parts for their older groupsets, as for the local agents, well they suck even more.

Agreed... @JMK1 is the best Campy guy in Joburg.
