A Quick Story
I went to the parts counter at a local bike shop
and the regular helpful guy wasn't there.
I asked the young man (purple hair/nose rings etc.) for some Sturmey Archer 22T cogs.
He looked at the computer and said they didn't have any....
I suggested we look in the parts drawer directly behind his head
labelled "Sturmey Archer Cogs".
Lo and behold, it was ram jam full.
"That's weird" he said.
I bought four and left.
Haha this is funny to me because in portland a kid with purple hair and nose rings is more likley to know about old three speeds than a middle age guy, old is cool up here I suppose.
