Duke's - a making of a brand. A well-made short film, directed and edited by Jim Bachalo, about the Duke's Cycle bike shop that's been at 625 Queen Street West since 1914 (except for the short period following the fire that took down the whole building in 2008).

I had a really bad

I had a really bad exprerience at Dukes,
I brought my bike in to get my chain fixed,
and I was presented with a 250 dollar bill.

I am just warning you guys, make really sure you
tell them twice no add on, no premium tune-up,
no new cables.. etc.

the worse part of it all was that the chain broke
3 months later.

I emailed them to complain.. and they "misplaced the emails" and didn't get
back to me for a month...

I would go to your neighborhood shop, small places
don't try to add anything extra. Same parts and Friendly service.
