That's assuming that one is interested in learning how to build a bike.
I have no interest in learning how to fix the AC in my place. I just want it to work. Which is why I called a guy out to fix it in much less time that it would have taken for me to learn how to do it and cheaper than if I bough the proper job-specific tools. The same applies to bikes.
