I’m coming up on a month with my new bike and I’m now finding that I’m slowly becoming ‘one’ with my bike and can feel the shifters and brakes better and will be doing a bit of tweaking.

I remember way back when I got my first car and a friend said, ‘you’ll get to the point where you’ll know your ride and how you want it to feel when you drive’; I’m now beginning to feel the same way about my bike.

Question, do any of you guys own a bike repair stand? I’m beginning to think that it would be a nice thing to have for those basic adjustments and for overall maintenance.
