Best Bike shop in Sussex/Surrey area?

[Little Bob]

Have a couple of hours to kill tomorrow and fancied poking around a decent bike shop - any recommendations?

Quite a big area to choose from!

Surrey, Nirvana in Westcott are a great bunch, as is the shop in Merrow (name escapes me!)

Thanks - you're right it was a bit of a large area!

I'll check out Evans as it's much closer.

Appreciate your replies.

Evans don't fall in to the category of a decent bike shop. Sorry.

 

[Little Bob]

Having just got back I have to agree.

Any other suggestions?

Finch in Reigate,
or Dauphin at the top of Box Hill. Mind, they always make you feel a bit inferior....bit like the top end HiFi dealers! If you don''t have everything in Campag Record they seem to think you are a bit of a tosser. Nice bikes though.

if you pop into Brighton there are several bike shops all within walking distance of one another and the train station

Sydney street bikes
Bakers street bikes
the specialized dealership at preston circus (sorry dont know the name of it)
Bike Hut for a laugh
Evans cycles

'the specialized dealership at preston circus' is Rayment Cycles, which is the best LBS hereabouts, but still not worth travelling a long way to visit IMO.

nice shop it is best not to ask the price in there, if you have to ask you cant afford as they say.
