LBS Recommendations in/around Sheffield

[Tony B]

Hi, I've a mate in Sheff that wants to get into cycling; nothing too
much, a few trundles with his 1yo on a carrier but he's making all the
wrong noises about buying a full suss BSO. He's also hopelessly addicted
to bling so really needs to get in touch with a good LBS before he ends
up with a proper pile of poo... can anyone recommend a good/helpful shop
in the Shefield area that could maybe help him?

Many thanks in advance,

Tony B

Also Langsett Cycles, Infirmary Road, Sheffield, S6 3DH

I bought my 2nd bike from them but it is a bit far away for me. Good but a bit
understaffed when I last visited.

I use JE James at the Old Fire Station , Rotherham -- they have a good staff
and I have always found them to be very helpful

Edinburgh Bicycle Co-op in Leeds?

Never been to the Leeds branch, but EBC Edinburgh is an /excellent/ shop.
