Re: Insurance Payout

Thanks for speedy reply. Didn't know there was a difference lol will have to call solicitor and find out. Is a proper written up quote for these reasons a standard thing in bike shops? Or may I have to look about? Only ever been verbal pricing on spot when I've been in past then a card receipt with obviously no details.

Insurance Payout

Few questions... Got knocked off few weeks back, ready to get back in the saddle but bike has a bit of damage, my solicitor said just take to shop get fixed and submit them the receipts, sounds easy enough, however I'm not sure if i'd rather the money & just put towards new bike, also alot of damage is superficial( scratched to f*ck but still useable) If id been responsible I wouldn't bother replacing( pedal, rear deraileur, seat, but I'm not so don't wanna just let them off the damage they've caused, can I submit a quote for new stuff from bicycle shop? would I need them to write it in a proper email? last one, I already own a rear wheel so would rather just replace the buckled one, what would I do about that? Thanks for any help.

Seat Rail Clamp for Fuji Transonic

Hi,
My seat rail clamp snapped today on my Fuji Transonic, I asked Evans about a replacement they said they only sell oversized ones which would fit a seat with Carbon rails mine arent. They said it would need to be specially ordered in but before I go down that route which seems a bit long winded thought I'd ask on here if anyone knew of any being readily available anywhere else?
Thanks,
