Does anyone know a shop in the San Francisco Bay Area which has experience with servicing Speedcific's Perception hubs?

I have two used wheels built by Mike Garcia. The front need one new cartridge bearing, the rear needs to have its needle bearing lubricated.

They're rebadged JoyTech hubs. Any decent shop should be able to service them.

Didn't know about the JoyTech connection.

I did contact one shop that is connected with serious riders, but was told that they had no experience with these hubs. There's an external cup on the rear hub that can be tricky to reinstall, so I'm still hoping to get a referral to a Bay Area shop which has already worked on these hubs.
