What reason did they give you for the wrong colour spoke? As for not setting up your derailleur, assuming you asked them to attend to it, they sound like a shop to avoid!
£4. for a single spoke! For that money I'd want it to be made of solid 24 carat gold.
Hmmm, you may have a point. Gold is quite weak so you'd have to make the spokes really quite thick. I'm sure that the diamond encrustation will add extra rigidity. And pazaz.I don't think that would be the best material to make a spoke out of.
Forget the gold and make the spokes of diamond filament, you'll never break one again.Hmmm, you may have a point. Gold is quite weak so you'd have to make the spokes really quite thick. I'm sure that the diamond encrustation will add extra rigidity. And pazaz.

I'm waiting for the day when bikes are made from synthetic spider web material and graphine.Forget the gold and make the spokes of diamond filament, you'll never break one again.
Name and shame! And yes, avoid them in the future - they/he may have had an off day but to offer that as a response sadly shows their colours.Not pleased with the bike shop. Took the bike in today and the guy who 'fixed' it wasn't in, the other guy said that "£17 wouldn't get your gears fixed. If you want, bring the bike in tomorrow and we'll do your gears for another £15".
As if... not going back there again.
