Finally riding a big boys bike
This Post really brings out the Difference in Generations and TV show lingo to me.
I am of a different Generation than you and your son. But simple language has been changed to Slang lately or just Email talk.
Rustoration. Looked it up and it brings up American Pickers.
Patina. Can you really De-Rust without removing the original Patina?
Rust Removal- It is really Never removed. We just knock down the big stuff.
That Being Said- Had to look that up. Most of the time it makes no sense in statements
Pop- American Picklers
Flip- TV Lingo
Pick - American Pickers
LBS- Local Bike Shop.
We look at the pictures you post and someone says. WOW FAST TEAR DOWN. How do your pictures really give us an idea of how many minutes or hours it took to Disassemble the bike?
Mens Pedals.. I never knew there were Mens Pedals, Womens Pedals, Kids Pedals, Etc.
My Dad and I would buy stuff and Clean it up before we would resell the item. He would always say. We have to clean it up because the old owner was too lazy to clean it up. The new buyer will be too lazy to clean it. But the buyer will pay more because it shines and the windows are clean.
I think it is great that you and your son are able to do something like this. I appreciate people who do this stuff. I think it keeps old values alive.
I am just pointing out some stuff as I read them. I know someone will attack my simple statements here. Hope it makes them feel good.
Good Luck on your little project.
Thanks for Sharing.
