5 weeks ago - yes, five weeks, I took my nearly dead bike to a bike repair shop. The things needed to be done to it were - a) unbend a slightly bent rear hanger on the frame (they have a tool for this) b) replace the hubs with 8 speed campag ones c) add a new rear 8 speed campag mech d) add a new chain e) give the whole thing a service.
I just don't understand why it's taking so long and there's only so many times I can phone again - they say they just can't find the parts (I know the bikes is old so maybe this is a real issue) - is it worth going on ebay and trying to find the parts myself or just saying 'thanks very much' to the shop and going elsewhere?
