The bicycle rack is interesting. A rope hooked to the exterior wall. The
bike swings while he repairs it.

Great video, I really enjoyed watching. One thing that struck me was how
much welding seemed to go on in that shop. What are people doing to their
frames? And do they really take their bikes to a shop for a loose chain or
a flat tire? It would seem like a luxury to have someone else do all
I am much happier with a stand also! Even for doing things as simple as
changing tires, it's a worthwhile investment because it should last a long
time.
That being said, since I got my stand I have greatly increased my
repertoire of repairs performed, up to and including complete builds.

Funny. I've done many complete teardowns, builds, and rebuilds using a
concrete floor, or while propping the bike against a wall; or, in fact,
holding the bike up with my head as I squatted to use both hands on a
cheap, cup 'n' cone bb without the aid of a pin wrench (nail and hammer +
pipe wrench
but Patrick, would you pay somebody to make those same repairs?

I knew someone would bring up Kraynick's :)It is truly a Gem .
Jerry is wonderful man and for those us who've been there to describe it to
those who have not is impossible . It very much reminds me of how many
bike shops used to be when I was growing up.

No socialism from me; I just said that a shop like that pictured, where
many of the payments are small enough to be made in coins, probably would
fare less well in the US where income taxes might be higher on small
incomes and social services far less extensive and more expensive to the
user. This
The coins are probably 5 Euros, which is probably enough to fix that

That was very nice. It balances the boorish Rapha store I did go into in
Amsterdam last April.
Frans reminds me of a bike repair icon here. He fills a similar function
