2325.0. "NEED ADVISE ABOUT ONEILS IN GARDNER" by KEPNUT::VARIEUR () Fri Jun 19 1992 14:34


	Has anyone ever dealt with Oneils in Gardner ????

	I'm in the process of buying a new bike and would like to know how
	they are for after sale service.

		Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

2325.1Ok by me...BAGELS::GOTANTASFri Jun 19 1992 16:046
    
    I would rate their service as very good. I bought a bike for my
    daughter there a few years ago...almost every time that she has 
    brought the bike in for a minor adjustment they have done it for free.
    They give a free 30 day check-up on all the bikes that they sell.
    
2325.2VERY GOOD - I RECOMMEND HIMWMOIS::GIROUARD_CMon Jun 22 1992 11:359
     	Bruce is great. They do cater more toward the recreational rider,
       so if you're looking for performance stuff/advice you'll have to
       go elsewhere.
    
        He is very, very customer orientated, very responsive and a pretty
       good mechanic. If you develop a "good customer" relationship with
       him, he'll throw discounts at you.

2325.3I recommend themRANGER::SCHLENERFri Jun 26 1992 17:2610
    I had my "old" bike serviced there (a Peugot (?) touring bike about 20
    years old). For the full works plus 2 inner tubes it cost $58.34. I
    know this because I told him (I forget the person's name) that I needed
    to buy another water bottle and a bottle carrier. He threw that in and
    told me that the total cost was $60. Not bad.
    
    So needless to say, I have since bought a pair of gloves from them and 
    now am going to be looking for a new bike saddle (I guess I should have
    invested that money into a new bike....)
