I've had a bike on cycle to work from these, the one in my profile actually a Genesis Mantle 20. I still have it though it's in pieces right now.

I haven't used these guys recently as I'd been going to a more local shop, but I would have used them again if they had something I wanted.
 
I'm not too surprised. Cycling in urban areas in the UK isn't much fun. The infrastructure, well at least the north, is entirely focused on motorised vehicles and barely considers pedestrians or cyclists. I have spent a considerable amount of time there over the last year, after nine years in the Netherlands, and I've been terribly disappointed by the infrastructure. A country with the wealth of the UK has no excuse, the situation should be much, much better.
