Hobart Bike Kitchen International Dealings

August 6, 2010

I was pottering in the backyard when two Nepali lads rocked up in search of some new wheels last Sunday a little early for the regular Hobart Bike Kitchen Sunday Session. They’d both caught the bus from Glenorchy and needed a bit of a hand sizing up a couple of bikes for the ride home. The younger fella was suffering from ‘I want a bike that is way to big for me syndrome’ and the older fella had his eyes on some very average dual suspension numbers. A missing brake and a very warped front chain ring were tackled thanks to an anonymous regular who has the skills to fix such things.  Thankfully we were able to reach a compromise and send them off with a couple of nicely functioning mountain bikes and scraped some helmets from the bottom of the barrel. Rock on Hobart Bike Kitchen.
