Cycling is getting too expensive as it is, but when doing maintenance and service, that's when you really feel the hit. I need to replace a bent derailleur hanger.
A 40 dollar part; some vendors charge $30 to ship, some vendors charge nothing. Everyone charges full price, and I assume that's a condition of doing business with the mfr.
I took a chance on $0 s/h. My fingers are crossed.
