I should say its better having a local bike mechanic who you know very well and who won't cheat you. I have been giving my bike for yrs to the same guy and if some thing need's to be changed on the bike he will call me 1st and ask before doing any thing on the bike.

Yes I agree , the problem is the "family" mech shut shop and shifted ... the guys around are not reliable enough ... they seem clueless when I tell them about some problem with the bike ... the SVC experience has been good thus far ...

yeah they do that here too ...

P.S : he showed me today that my rear tyre was leaking air from two puncture's which were fixed , so he said this process would jus keep repeating , fill air once a week and ride till it's time to change the tyre . i lose about 6 psi per week ...
