Is this a brilliant idea?

Also saw some helmets at good prices. Try $60 for a real smart looking helmet, with a built in tail light.

I am super keen to head there and assemble my Wilier once i've bought all the parts for it. Great concept and excellent way to keep business.

An LBS after today's needs...eg use our computer to buy goods overseas and have it delivered and installed here etc
I like the idea of renting benchspace. Very good idea.

Nor nautical miles either, unless you're talking about a ride of course but I prefer to measure them in attoparsecs.Myddraal wrote:I think you mean 40 Nm. I was a bit confused too for a minute, there's no way you need to measure anything on a bicycle in nano metres.

yeh - the wheel truing one sounds like a good ideaKonaCommuter wrote:I was just visiting their site just now. Interested in their beginner maintenance course. VERY interested. And for free? I feel bad about using stuff for free
do the course then true your own wheels for $15 for 1 hour bench time (i think they were the costs)
less than half the price i pay to get my wheels trued
