Mechanic recommendation in Sydney?

Postby maraach » Wed Jul 02, 2008 1:20 pm

Hey Guys,

I was just wondering if anyone knew a bike mechanic in Sydney they could recommend? Looking for someone who will take good care of the bike but doesn't charge excessively?

Where are you in Sydney. If you're North West Mick at Castle Hill Motorcycles is pretty good, not quick but he's fair priced and does good work.

South west one of our Sponsors, Aitkens at Liverpool are pretty good too. Theres Flywheels (another sponsor) at Alexandria also.

Good Luck

That's awesome work guys, and record time.

I'm just after someone i can trust, someone who will take care of my bike, and not try to take me for a "ride" whenever they think they can.

Given your around Sutherland, Colette has had nothing but rave reviews about the guys at Caringbah cycles, both their price and their customer service skills. Give them a buzz, you may be plesantly surprised :)
