Well I’d Luv to be Hora, I aspire to that wonderment that is the persona, but alas nahh.. I’m just obnoxious Moi…
Thing is. Thing is I’ve been going there on and off for about 10 years now. I don’t necessarily like the stuff he has in there but that’s his lot and he does well enough out of it.
But he’s a hardcore MTB’er, sells IBIS Mojo’s etc. (that’s’ his problem right there I suspect) and used to ride out with some mates of mine a while back (I’ve never ridden with him BTW) and as I do I thought I’d pop over there rather than the “chains” we have local, you know support your LBS and all that. Not like I haven’t bought stuff from in the past, in fact MrdBouy spend £200 in there buying birthday pressies for family back in April.
Al I wanted was the wheels truing up (he’s done this before on other bikes of mine) and reseating the tubeless(es) like init.
Not like the wheels are pikey eithers, Stans/Hopes 29er SS stuff, nothing out of the ordinary.. easy enough.. I just don’t have the time and I’m away for the next couple of weeks, thought I’d get them done and collect and go ride when I got back.
Anywhoo’s I know it’s his choice, I can take it or leave it. I can whine about it too.. it was just his abrupt manner and flat refusal to consider.
I’d name and shame but to be honest if you knew where I rode, you’d figure it out soon enough, no need to blast it out with a fog horn.
So my “chain” will complete my ask and as I was so pleased I bought some new ¾ bibs, two pairs of SixOne gloves, a new helmet and some more Stans fluid.
I am not Hora in disguise (honest)
