Description: Bicycle Sales in Colne, DK.
Shop visited: December 2007.

I had worn through the rims on my front wheel and had to get a new rim or wheel. Though the shop didn’t have a rim that would do or time to order one, let alone build a new wheel for us, well it was just before xmas after all. They dug out a cheap front wheel from a BSO, so that I could continue riding over the holidays.
