Personally i really dont like Stiff. Im asking for a mate who wants somewhere closer than Leeds. He may just have to accept the fact he needs to travel a bit to find somewhere decent
years ago when I worked in ponte, there was kendells in castleford and one that a local timetrialist (Krygsman or sommat) had opened in ponte itself. And there was some MTB shop Darrington - dont know, I never went to that one.
