    Need a good shop recomendation (Denver area)

    I have been to Tfog for tires, Faster for engine/drive issues. My bike currently needs a new rear tire and has a coolant problem (leaking, think there is a crack in the hose) also needs break fluid flushed, oil change (yeah, i know i can do it myself, but im lazy; just want to ride). Now that Faster is under new managment I am a lil bit aprehensive to take it there; trusted Nick for a looong time. So, my question is: Where should I take my bike now? Does Tfog do matience work or just tires?

    All sugestions welcome

    Thanks,

    If you realize that this stuff isn't so technical that you can do it yourself, then how is it that you'd be worried to take it to any local business who's been good enough to survive a terrible economy?

    I'll do it for ya, charge ya half as much as the shops, and still rip you off!!

    Seriously, though, bring it over. I have a tire machine and balancer and everything else you would need. This way you get the satisfaction of doing it yourself!!

    I'd do the brakes and oil yourself (or with someone), super easy and can be done simultaneously; can probably solve the pissing coolant too. TFOG can do the rear tire. Money saved and all work done by a trustworthy mechanic!

    TFOG does all kinds of work on bikes and that's who I take mine to when I need something done I don't want to do myself. I would hit up Jim.

    another +1 on Jim @ TFOG, I have gone there myself and sent friends there for a few years now, none ever left unhappy.
