Welcome to the Bikerumor Friday Yard Sale, our new video series where we spill our thoughts on the top cycling product and tech news of the week, all in the time it takes to finish a pint. Sometimes we’ll do it from Watt’s shop, sometimes from the field. We may even have a special guest now and then. Let us know what you think, and be sure to subscribe to our YouTube channel so you never miss an episode!
And check out Watt’s shop at Revolution Cycles NC.
Having had my own Bike Shop I really felt Watts pain as they were talking about mail order giants, and yes, it is odd and far to common that a regular customer and someone you would regard as a friend will come in to your shop and say “hey I bought that product we spoke about last week”, but I must say that looks a really nice shop and the fact that you sell beer is very interesting to me, something we don’t have in the UK, best we can offer is a coffee shop/bike shop, no hard stuff, maybe thats an avenue we could go down over here, however I guess licence laws would stop that.
Love it – thanks for the casual bike talk. so many things to discuss. Trails? IMBA? trail design? bike distributors? Curious about digging deeper into the cdale thing and why there are none in your area? dynamics around when bikes are designed and timing of them getting into the shops? Also- the old convo about if it’s not in the shop how can the consumer buy it? I need a X length stem from this company. Example> enjoyed it over my coffee this am – keep em coming
