Hah! (I may have posted this already, forgive me) This happened to me last time I went to a bike shop, the entire drive train on my beloved red Trek was worn out. So I go in and tell the 18 yr old dude with the headband that I need a new chain, new freewheel and probably a new crank as well, but I'm not quite sure about the last one. He doesn't even look at the bike, but rolls his eyes and goes, in a patronizing voice: "okaay, well, how old is the bike?"

I just stare at him. "What's that got to do with it? The bike is 8 yrs old, but I changed the crank last October."
