Tiger fixed

Post by Frankie »

Tiger got picked up today, as some may know it went a little wrong, well they called me earlier to confirm that it's all fixed and under warranty, now that's what I call service. that's Bulldog triumph for you. :)

These guys are always spot on with the service. Turns out it was the the selector spring which had snapped.
Obviously it's not supposed to. 8)

Yeah, the spring went, but why? That's a rare fault AFAIK.

Yeah it is, I have no idea what caused it, or how much stripping down needed. I just called them and asked them to pick it up. 8) They collected her and by the end of the day the phone was ringing saying she is ready.

I have had the bike for over three years now, and lots of miles, so I am glad it was done foc. (y)

I am cutting down on the cake, I have developed a built in rubber ring around my mid section. I know I was putting on a little weight, but I put it down to the training and more muscle (muscle) The view from the mirror (poolparty) says different (facepalm)
