exactly.
just bought two tubes and two co2's from a local because i needed it. a bit more money but also no ****ing wait for shipping and ive supported a localshop.


im sure i could buy the tools to face a bb and buy the tools to install an bb and cut a steerer tube and a headset press, but the chances of me using them more than once or twice vs the cost of purchasing them all....

WHY ARE PEOPLE AFRAID OF THEIR LOCAL BIKE SHOPS??? or spending a bit of cash...Plus most shop mechanics if they have the time will walk you through what they are doing or atleast let you watch.
