I started by helping my son rebuild an old steel bike. I rebuilt my tourer. But I'm like Pardes, and now when there is something I really want changed that may take more of my time than I'm willing to give, I take it to the shop.

That's why my tourer has barcons and new brake levers interruptors and Koolstop brake pads. It would have taken me too long! Only took a week at the shop.
