I guess I didn’t explain it well, I had everything but the titanium spindles. Even at 150lbs in high school I was too heavy for them.

My head mechanic/manager was a coke head who saw training me as freeing him to go sleep off his benders in the back of the shop while I built bikes.

My old bike hangs unceremoniously in the corner of the garage:
