shops can be so fraudulent sometimes. I once brought my whole bike in for new tires, when i got it back they didnt even adjust the r-wheel straight and it was barely all hand tight.

now i just hand them the wheels to change the tires.

also, 7k on a liter bike isn;t horrible, on a alum sprocket. He also fails to mention that this chain had a few tight spots on it.

i've seen a lot of lazy riders in the ICU. they usually stop riding after getting put on a ventilator.

learn yourself how to really work on a bike, its invaluable.
