Boxed bike super service in CT

[TheNaidy]

Hi All,

I just got back from a 2 month trip to Indonesia. While I was there I bought myself a road bike just to keep on training, I think I got a really good deal so I boxed it up and brought it home to Cape Town

So now I’m looking for advice on where I can take it to put it back together but also to get rid of any rust and sort out a stiff front shifter. Basically give it a really nice service so everything is fresh and new.

A bike fit would be an added bonus but I can always sort that out afterwords.

Appreciate any advice and recommendations.

 

Added some pics just for interest sake 🙂

Thanks

I second @Mansoor suggestion
Otherwise, you could try The Gear Change in Mowbray for a service and setup (one stop shop)

CE (Clint ElliotCycles also a great option in Tokai
