Hey there,
This is a question geared towards anyone who's worked in a bike shop.
I'll be taking my bike into the shop to have it converted to a multispeed next week (I have zero tools, little time and expertise and need the job done asap), but I also don't want to miss out on learning how to do it myself.
Is it fair to ask if they could do it at a time when I can stay and observe how they do it?
I don't want it to appear rude that I'm watching them do the job... but on the flipside perhaps they won't keep the meter running for as long?
I don't want to be too paranoid (mechanics gotta eat) but obviously don't want to be taken advantage of, bet they can smell a newbie from a mile away.
Your thoughts?
