Jalan Tukang and West side bike shops

[jonkuek]

Hi guys and gals,

 

Basically i stay at Jurong West, would normally try to look out for

bike shops at the west side. Spent quite some time reading thru

the forum topics and gathered these places

 

1. Jalan Tukang - industrial area (heard there are a couple of shops)

2. Jurong West St 52 (near Chinese Garden MRT)

3. Toh Guan Entreprise Hub - near IMM (ASPhoon and other bike shops)

4. Midview Building Bukit Batok - industrial area (Dexing, Hua Chin, etc)

5. Clementi (not sure where...)

 

Above, only been to ASPhoon.

I am more interested about Jalan Tukang because so far only a few reviews

about this place.

 

Anyone kind to share some opinion?

no matter Jln Tukang or other west side bike shops, all welcome

I used to frequent this shop at jalan tukang, the boss goes by the name of Ah-meng. Shop is near the DHL building

unfortuntately i lost the namecard, but if anyone is interested to try his service, can pm me and I don't mind showing you the way.

 

reason why I stop going? cos I changed to scooter

[Epredator]

The motorshop locate at jurong west st 52 not honest. There's once when i was still with my P-plate i went there to buy 2T so i ask them whether they have clutch cable for my bike anot, they said have and told me to push in my bike so that they can replace for me. After pushing in the bike one of the mech sitted on my bike and told me that the problem is not cause by the cable and was cause by the wore out clutch plate and told me that it was cost around $300++ to change it so i said i'm in a rush and will come back tomorrow for the replacement.

 

On the second day i rode to sin ming to purchase 1 pc clutch cable and replace it on my own and use the bike for 1 yr plus oso not problem

 

Nabe trying to chop me

[jonkuek]

hi all,

been to Jalan Tukang shop already, actually went there 3 times. First, give you guy the info from the name card i got:

 

=========================================

YONG SENG HENG MOTOR SERVICES

Services include: Repair & servicing;

Sales and trade in of new & used bikes;

Insurance; Inspection; Towing; Spare parts & accessories

永成辛摩哆服务

阿明

AH MENG

TEL: 9207 7892 / 6569 3976

 

NO. 28, JALAN TUKANG, SINGAPORE 619258

=========================================

 

1st time:

Patch front tyre -> $5, Ah Meng use soap water and found someone poke on front tyre, so patch for me, till now, no problem at all

 

2nd time:

Clutch and gear change -> $48, my bike 7 years old already, beyond repair, Ah Meng change the whole set for me and wow, i felt comfortable with the clutch in/out and gear up/down.

 

3rd time:

Chain and sproket -> $180, Ah Meng change a original Honda sproket with a Made-in-Japan D.I.D O-ring (which he claim is better than X-Ring) for me, after installation, test run, felt good. Run along PIE/AYE, also good, very minimal noise.

==================================================

 

i am the kind of guy always like to try out different bike shops, but i can say,

ah meng shop is the kind i never have to go back for the same problem. Other shops, like those 'famous' ones in Alexander Village, i will have to go back and ask them why like that, and they will give me lame excuses with 'i-don't-know' face....

 

anyway, recommend rider to give ah-meng a try, but try to call him first, he seems to work non-stop, may not have time for your bike.

 

He told me Mon-Sat, he open from 9am-8pm

and Sunday 9am-2pm.

[eFzek17]

[DNotorious]

gosh zelot, normal servicing no need to travelling so far wan lah, from west to east, not really neccessary, i think average mechs could do that for you. Just find some where nearby, unless you are talking about major repairs, then find those reputable ones like Planet Mtr, etc.

 

Else, if you want a profound mech for servicing phantoms, can find Dr.Koon at Choo Hock Co. 61 Lengkok Bahru #01-454 Tel: 62742265, very close to Redhill MRT, no need to travel very far oso. Full servicing $25

adding on, an old fren that i haven met for a long time is in that shop.. so i will go there do servicing (normal).

 

But as the mths pass. getting abit tired of travelling there.
