Does anyone have recommendations of good places in St Petersburg to have a bicycle serviced and worn parts replaced?

I am currently on a bicycle trip across Europe and Asia and have bicycled from Amsterdam to Estonia (see http://www.bikerussia.com for my web site). I expect to arrive in St Petersburg next week and will be there for several weeks attending a Russian language class. At that time, I would like to get my bicycle looked over and have some worn parts replaced. Hence, my question above.

Also, http://bikeservice.ru/repairshop/

I recommend Bivak and BikeServie.

Though I ve never repaired my bike there. I prefer do it myself.

Another related question, any recommendations for a good camping store in St Petersburg, e.g. one that sells tents, camp stoves and similar items?

"Irbis" camping gear store at Fontanka 38, it's Nevsky prospect @ Fontanka river. The store is in the yard, go through the arc to get there.

"Terra" store - at Dumskaya 9, close to Nevsky prospect subway station.
