The service here can be very iffy! Once had a great experience, a puncture was fixed for me in a matter of minutes, despite them being quite busy. However on other occasions I’ve felt as though the last thing the guy working there wants is to talk to you or help at all, very gruff blunt service, during which he gave me the incorrect length of tube and rim tape because he didn’t bother to check the wheel size. I noticed the mistake on one, but he didn’t then correct the other, so we had left the shop, then realised the mistake, and had to come back. If he had spent more than 5 seconds looking at the bike this could have been avoided! It was like he really did not want to have to deal with me

In case you’ve been living under a rock for the past year, the government past a new scheme in January 2009. The new (ish) bike to work scheme provides you with up to € 1000 for a bike and accessories, given that your work buys it.
MacDonald’s is a keen supportive of the scheme and thus keep their shop well stocked. They’ve got a partner shop on Wexford Street, which was first opened in the 1920s. The shop in Rathgar is a newer addition, but it’s still got that same family run feel.
They also service your bikes in the shop and try to get back to you in the same day. Not a bad deal at all.

An incredibly well stocked wee bike shop in the heart of Rathgar Village!
The prices of the bikes seem reasonable but I wasn’t really looking at bikes, I was looking for gadgets… oh and lights, it’s getting dark earlier and earlier and unless you are lit up like a Christmas tree you are going to end up like road pizza some fine evening.
Gadgets…well, I am male, we have an inbuild love of flashy essentially useless things! I discovered the ultimate one here — the ‘Reelight’, a set of two lights that sit on the frame of your bike and are powered by magnets as your wheel spins… fantastic. It costs about 46Euro but definitely going on my Christmas list!
Leaving that aside the shop is packed with accessories as well as bikes, a very useful place to know about.
