    Should Trek / LBS get into the rental business ?

    This is biased by what I am reading about inventory gluts, etc and coming back from a ski trip where I demo'd skis. There are people still out riding bikes that are 10+ years old, because they used to ride and don't want to bite the bullet on a new bike just yet. You could have a group of...

    Brake service lesson learned

    Tried to bleed brakes... Got mineral oil on calipers. Cut braking effectiveness in half (at best). Annoyed me endlessly. Out of frustration i pulled the rotors and pads...baked them at 400 degrees for 20 minutes. Seems to have done the job. Much better.
