Can anyone recommend a good bike mechanic north of the river? BikeForce Balcatta and Trek (formerly TBE) Osborne Park aren't far from me.
I was using a shop in Carine but after being told 11-34 cassettes for road don't exist, along with some communication issues, I'm not that confident any more. I think they're more into MTB than road, whereas I ride 90% road and 10% MTB.

Thoroughly recommend Vault, Richard is a mobile bike mechanic and works out of his workshop in Craigie. Prior to setting up Vault, Richard was senior mechanic at Cyclemania (owned by Wayne Evans) in North Perth

The bicycle is a curious vehicle. Its passenger is its engine.

Thanks. I got a really good vibe from Bikeforce Balcatta. I'll also keep Vault in mind. Right now, it may come down to who can get their hands on different items of stock!
