It makes sense. The $4000 Kestrel with Super Record isn't going to need as much work as the twenty year old Schwinn Frontier that sat in someone's backyard for two years. As is, I'm already doing everything other than hydraulics (we don't see that enough for me to have learned much) and I'm the default guy for anything FG/SS. Seriously, not a single person in the place knew how to install a cog and lockring, and I taught the store manager how to install and remove a cartridge BB and true a wheel. ****ing Performance, man. But I'm learning a lot. Hey, maybe this winter when we're slow I could go out to Boston for a working vacation. I hear there's a rad fixie shop out in the burbs...
