Bike shop in Kingston

[ozboz]

Hiya , today I wandered around Sigma, a bike shop in Kingston, very impressive , catered for all and priced for all , at first I thought oh oh , looking at wheels for my 1928 a bit pricey for me at 1700 after 20% discount ! but as I rummaged around there are some fantastic prices , one that impressed me was a Focus CX with electo shifters under a G , there was also a Trek custom paint job service offered , if I get my knee sorted this year and have a rumble with the CX people , I'll be taking a trip to Kingston ! , when I came out I saw a rider on a Claud Butler 50's job same as the one I'm thinking of getting next week , but he shot away from the lights before I could have a chat with him,

They often have some good deals on higher end clothing on their website, especially if you are one end of the sizing spectrum or t'other

Jamaica is a long way to go just for a wander round a bike shop.

I'd say Sigma is technically in Hampton Wick being the other side of the river to Kingston

There's only one Kingston !
Maybe Sigma is in Hampton Wick ,
There was a Kingston nearby when I lived in Queensland , and it it did have a bike shop ! sorry to cause any confusion , next time I mention a bike shop I'll be sure to include the post code !

You mean Kingston Upon Thames for complete accuracy

Bit like Richmond Upon Thames to distinguish from the ones in N Yorks and Virginia and NSW (and probably others)

Will to live, fading....Sigma is Hampton Wick, which is a few hundred metres from Kingston (Surrey). And a fine lot they are too, a proper bike shop.

But Sigma run the Specialized shop in Kingston.. by the station... so technically they are also in Kingston

He wasn't in that shop though

Their office/warehouse is in Esher, so technically more of their operation is outside Kingston than in it....
