    The staff are defensive (actually, make that aggressive) and unhelpful. Too busy to change a tyre,…read morebut plenty of time to take money and verbally abuse people. I had an old bicycle with a flat tyre, and was also told to wait two days for a tyre change. When I came back, I was presented with a bill for over 100 Swiss Francs. That's a *hell* of a lot of money for a flat tyre. The new tyre was around 60 Francs, but I was charged nearly 50 Francs just for the tyre change. I later went to Happy Bike on Europa Allee with exactly the same problem (different bike). Total fee: 30 Francs. 25 for a tyre, FIVE FRANCS to change it. Now Happy Bike is unusually cheap (and unusually helpful), and they are probably just trying to build up their business (and might be no good in 6 months), BUT when I took the receipt back to Velofix and questioned the outrageous bill I got a wave of bullsh*t. The head mechanic got quite aggressive, and told me that the bill was reasonable because 1) they had to pay a lot of rent and have a lot of staff 2) the global financial crises of 2008 and had really affected the sports business It was quite a barrage, and by the end of it I was a little confused 1) I have to pay a lot of rent in my apartment as well, can I please have a 50% discount? 2) What the f*ck has the global financial crises got to do with overcharging people in a bike shop? To my shame, I paid the robbers, but I'll never go back there. Stay away from Velofix.

    Of all the used bike sales and bike auctions I've been to, this was by far the best --- and,…read moresurprisingly, the mellowest. Need a basic used city bike for getting to class and back? CHF 150. Want something simple to leave at the train station? CHF 100. Want an almost-new commuter with a working generator and V-brakes? CHF 400. Want a nicer bike for weekend rides? Well, that's a little trickier... Test rides are easy --- bring an ID to leave with the gatekeeper, and pop across the street for a few minutes. Checkout couldn't be simpler (as long as you bring cash) --- each bike has the no-haggle price on a form, along with the owner's name. You take the bike to the checkout stand, pay your money, and get your receipt; the operators deal with giving the money to the seller, so you don't need to wait for them to make change. No cards accepted, though --- so bring plenty of large bills, so nobody beats you to a good bike while you're at the Bancomat. I was looking for a good heavy-duty commuter for my wife, and a nice mountain bike for Altberg (and occasionally Üetliberg). The first one was easy --- quickly narrowed it down to a few, and picked a good one. The mountain bike was more of a stretch --- there were a few around, but several were too large, one was too downhill-oriented (I can live without three chainrings, but do need two), and many, many were too old (I'm trading up from a late-90s steel hardtail --- I don't need another). Did eventually find a 2005 Specialized FSR that had been pressed into city duty --- it's back in the mud and woods now.
