Tony Butterworth Cycles

The bike was beginning to feel very sick and the wobble on the back wheel was so pronounced that I had disconnected the back brake several days ago. At least two more spokes had broken and the wheel would not turn freely any longer. When I saw a big bike shop outside Sheffield United called J James my spirits lifted. When I went in I found them very unhelpful. They were stockists of my Trek bike but couldn't possibly look at my bike until tomorrow. I thanked them politely but left seething. If this was Jesse James they should be outlawed! Just up the road from Wednesday I found another bike shop - Tony Butterworth Cycles. There I met the proprietor Chris Faulkner. He was very friendly and when I explained my circumstances he immediately took my bike in for repair. He spent about an hour putting in spokes, straightening my wheel, adjusting my brakes and generally cleaning it up. He also made me a cup of coffee! When I went to pay he refused any payment at all. I thanked him and shook his hand. If ever you are in Hillsborough go and buy a bike from Chris and forget about going to Sheffield Wednesday!
