Lock 7 - So glad this Concorde has a new owner.  Can't wait to see them out on the streets of London!

The idea of Lock 7 is great, a bike shop and café in one. Its convenient, as you can sit and relax…read morewhile you wait for the repairs to be done. The shop is well situated on Regents Canal, in the heart of a café and bike loving community. I have only taken my bike in for minor surgery, but found it to be very reasonably priced. Its not often you can get any repairs done on your bike for 4 pounds, and considering I nearly threw my bike out the window attempting to fix the breaks myself, it was well worth it. The interior of the shop, with its minimalist design, has more of a 'fixing the bike in the garage' feel than a cosy café feel. The vibe is still relaxing and the food is reasonably priced.

Is it a bar? Is it a bike shop? It's all a bit confusing from the outside, but once you walk in…read moreand get over the fact that there are bikes hanging from the walls where you sit and have your coffee, this place is actually pretty good. I have no complaints about the café's food or coffee and enjoy sitting and have a drink in the tables. I personally do not own a bike, but if I did I would definitely want to combine a dreary bike repair with a lovely warm coffee. I often see some young creative professionals doing work with a coffee and their laptops open here. They are friendly enough not to hurry you out, leaving you with a comfortable working space. Compared to the other cafés in the area, this one might appear to be a bit cold, but it is an interesting concept and it's always fun to discover a café with an edge.

Looking desperately for a same-day chain set replacement, I visited three other cycle shops on a…read moreSunday morning before happening on a diminutive and somewhat empty Evans showroom in Spitalfields. "It's an itty bitty Evans. This won't do", I thought. But wait! There was a sign inside. MASSIVE SHOWROOM DOWNSTAIRS This warranted further investigation. And it was indeed massive. The selection of bikes was more than impressive. The selection of bike clothes was admirable. The accessories, appealing (there was even a Chrome messenger bag). But, better yet, this Evans had the first repair shop that was willing to take my bike and do the repair THAT DAY. Not Tuesday. Not Thursday. Sunday. The day I arrived with a busted, unrideable bike. This Evans is totally winning. I like it. ...as I tend to like most things that are "massive downstairs".

I'm in two minds about this particular store. Yeah I understand that it's a reliable staple shop…read morefor things that it can be hard to find elsewhere like gel padded gloves, mountain bike wear etc; and many of the staff did go out of their way to help me make a purchase. Which I suppose is the point - I made an impulse buy; a Mongoose Sabrosa which is probaly the crappest bike known to existence and I'm fighting back the resentment that they kept quiet about their 'test ride' policy until it was too late (i.e: they are supposed to offer you one, because if you buy a bike you can't return it the next day on the grounds that it doesn't work for you at all) and I bought the lilting, heavy creaking disaster on wheels. I'm sure that someone else would have loved it, espeically if you like hybrids, but after being on a zippy narrow racing frame for a year slowing down seems somewhat agonising. They also keep running out of stuff; from gloves, to bags, to pannier racks, on what seems to be a bit too much of a regular basis. Evans - I want to like you but it's hard right now! It took them a good few weeks before they could explain why they didn't have my power grips, made all the more frustrating by the fact that they are the cheapest place where you can buy that item. My experience of this shop seems to be this: attentive service, tinged with disappointment. The road to hell was indeed paved with good intentions.
