I certainly discovered their site while ago but I will say between Park Tools and Youtube I've had no problem figuring out how to do everything I need: Installing brakes and shifters, adjusting derailleurs, wrap bars, cut steeer tubes etc

Like many others, I find the SEARCH function to be too time consuming since many unrelated posts are usually listed. I do a basic search and if what I need does not show, I post a question. I used to be a moderator at a website that received over 1M hits a day. I'm no newbie to forums; please do not presume.
