Recommended Balfes Bikes

Recommended Posts

I just have to post a recommendation for the wonderful team at Balfes Bikes. My beloved bike that I had since 2005 and rode everywhere, was nicked a couple of weeks ago, and I first called the original place I bought my bike to see if i could buy another one. The guy who answered basically, laughed when I explained what had happened and said it was a joke thinking I could get a bike this year as everywhere was sold out. I then phoned Balfes who i've been to for servicing my old bike over the years, and got the best service I could have wished for. They were understanding,very patient with me (after trying a few bikes!)and I spoke to 3 different guys on my visits there, all were brilliant , and ordered in what I chose which came within the week. So a shout out to a great local asset!

I have taken my vintage 40-year old Di Blasi folding bike to Balfe's Bikes Dulwich on 2 occasions (punctured tyre and gear problems) and another bike that needed the the gear change wire replaced. On all occasions, the Balfe's guys were very friendly, helpful and knowledgeable - and managed to fix the problems. Definitely recommend them!

    • https://www.letslinkuk.net/ I'm interested to know why the OP didn't find this sort of scheme to work, as I would have thought it was much harder to find someone to do a direct exchange with? Does anybody else have experience of a scheme like this? Happy to be persuaded! 
    • I personally think is a great idea Bobbly and would love if there was a section for it. I wouldn't offer free gardening under the "for sale" section as I would expect something in exchange and wouldn't expect our cat being looked after for free under the "wanted" section, as an example.
    • Looking for used decking boards. Should be hardwood
    • I have fond memories of Govinda's I used to go there  back in the 90's (maybe earlier) for an affordable tasty lunch..I was wondering if its still around. Now I have to make a point of going there. Does anyone else remember a really affordable basement cafe run by the church in a street off of Golden Square? parallel to Regent Street? I also used to love the Vegetarian cafe on Neal Street in the basement (Neal Street Cafe?) and there was an inczredible inexpensive authentic Japanese resturant I use to go to with my Japanese friends (who introduced me to it) tucked away behind Long Acre where that brown brick modern building ('modern' I think it went up in the 90's!) now stands that fronts Long Acre and Neal Street..I think it was called Asakasa or something?
