The owner seemed nice enough and had very friendly banter, orienting us to cycling in Oxford. He sold me an old Gazelle for 100 pounds, which I have since learned was an inflated price. Also, within two weeks of the purchase of my refurbished bike, the gears needed attention. I took it to him and he told me these type of gears, when they start to go they cannot be repaired. I took my bike to the Cycleanalyst down the street and they fixed my gears and adjusted my seat in 20 minutes. He is a one man operation and I believe this led to his reluctance to look at my gears.
