Too Much Manpower
Maybe Crumby over torques the bicycle spokes. Maybe that's why those spokes break. Or maybe the spokes fail while fixing to withstand the weight of 30-40 pound sacks of birdseed plus Crumby out of the saddle. Mercy beaucoup!
Whatever, changing out bike spokes is a biter, fer sure. Especially on the rear wheel if you happen to have a freewheel on it. Yes. to change out a spoke, the average bicycle mechanic must remove the freewheel. Plus, you need a dang vice and a special tool.
But what if the average or slightly below average bicycle mechanic we are now discussing applies Too Much Manpower. Here's what can happen. Yes. Your cheap Harbor Freight vice isn't so cheap now. Is it? No. Now it costs what it cost plus what it costs to replace it. Too Much Manpower.
Just espy that pathetic busted vice. It's totally broke. Crumby made a half-hearted attempt at a cold weld. But screw that. It's totally broke.
Crumby had to take his wheel to a friendly bike shop. They broke the freewheel off. How embarrasing is that? Too Much Manpower.
