Best bike repair shop in Eindhoven for an old Gazelle? Getting confused by the options rn

Picked up a secondhand Gazelle on Marktplaats recently, figured commuting by bike would be smarter than taking the bus everywhere. Of course the chain starts squeaking after two weeks and the gears aren't shifting smooth anymore. Classic.

Anyone know a reliable bike repair place nearby that won't cost a fortune? I'm based near Strijp-S so anything walking distance would be ideal. Saw Geoctroyeerde and a few others on Google Maps but the reviews are all over the place - some people saying they waited weeks for a basic repair.

Probably just needs a tune-up + new brake pads or something, nothing fancy. Hoping to keep it under €50-60 for basic work. Is that realistic for Eindhoven?

If you've had a good experience somewhere recently let me know. Not looking for anything fancy, just somewhere honest that won't upsell you on stuff you don't need.

cheap standing desk that wont wobble? budget is around €300-400

setting up my home office in eindhoven and realising my kitchen table setup is killing my back. need a standing desk thats height adjustable but im not trying to spend a fortune on it.

budget is roughly €300-400, dont need memory presets or anything fancy, just stable when extended and not garbage quality. ill be using it 8+ hours a day w/ a monitor and mechanical keyboard so wobble matters more to me than features.

ive seen the flexispot ones on bol.com but idk if thats the move or if theres something better in that price range. also open to frame-only options since i could probably grab a tabletop from ikea or whatever.

any recs? mostly care about stability and not feeling like im typing on a boat
