I love working on crappy old bikes. I always get all the Gripshift bikes passed to me cuz no one else can deal with changing cables on them.
Except when it's a 10-15 year old Magna or Murray. This shop just ran a Groupon for a $25 tuneup, to it seems everyone in Metro-Detroit is pulling the bikes they haven't ridden in a decade out of the shed and bringing them in so we can make our $12.50 off of them.

I was working on one yesterday and nobody in the shop could get the grip shift back together. The worst thing.
