Hello my name is Ken Messina and I am new to this forum but I have used the information here with success. It is a great forum with knowledgeable people. I am a new home mechanic. I have been working on my road bikes since I owned a Schwinn Varsity(just gave away my age). I have been working at a local retailer as the mechanic for 2.5 years and hung a sign in front of my house last year with very good success. I have Leonard Zinn's road and mountain repair books and use Park Tools site for information as well. I hope to broaden my mechanical knowledge here and pass along what I know as well.
