Bikelove is the place to go, It's on Maryhill rd and is run by Carl, a mechanic for the Chainreaction MTB team. Fast turnaround on repairs and an all round good guy. As for others, Dales=very spendy and not much choice, Bilsland's= wouldn't touch as i know a few people who've been sold lemon's from there, Willy Bain, great for repairs but be prepared to wait ages for it.Alpine, Evans etc i never go near as it's all about the sale and nothing else for them, Wheelcraft -avoid like the plague, Common Wheel project in Bridgeton is a charity shop run by John, sells reconditioned bikes and fixed/ss ones too, good value for money.
 
I found Neil Bilsland a good chap willing to go that extra bit to help the customer out when I bought my Kinesis from there 4years ago, hopefully he's still the same way as 24,000miles later I've wore it out (a giantic crack round the chainstay :sad:).

Dales are great. They've been so helpful to me. Tried to fix my turbo when it broke even though I didn't buy it from them. And when I was buying my road bike they spent loads and loads of time with me fitting me to my secteur. They really went above and beyond.
