More Atlanta Information

As I mentioned in a prior post, my first scheduled time in Atlanta is just about two weeks away. Since this is just around the corner, I wanted to take some time to better explain what RogueMechanic is all about. I do bike repairs, maintenance, and custom builds. The majority of my jobs involve road and multi-sport but I also work on a lot of CX and mountain bikes. Here in CLE, I seem to have cornered the “problem solver” market. By this I mean that I get the bikes that have an issue that the local bike shops can’t...

RogueMechanic Complete Tune

roguemechanic@gmail.com (John Satory) — Mon, 10 Dec 2012 19:53:26 PST

The Complete Tune is by far the most popular maintenance package that I am asked to do at least annually on my clients bikes. Since it seems like everyone does different things when it comes to tune-ups or overhauls, I figured that it would be a good thing to list exactly what I do. By doing this, you know exactly what you are getting. 1. Inspection of the frame and fork for any damage. 2. Inspection of the chain, cassette, and chainrings for wear and/or damage. 3. Inspection of remaining components including headset, bottom bracket, pedals, cables and housing sections...

Campagnolo Ultra Torque Shim Kit Update

roguemechanic@gmail.com (John Satory) — Wed, 25 Jul 2012 09:49:56 PDT

Recently it was broght to me attention via a comment (thanks Ken!) that it's been several years since I originally got into this Campy UT mess. Ken wanted to know if there has been any updates regarding the issue with the axial movement or the approach to the fix using the shims. Well, as of now, Campagnolo is still choosing to ignore the problem that some folks (quite a few actually...) are continuing to have. In the meantime, I'm still getting emails and comments about it. To date, I have yet to hear from anyone who has installed the shim...

Where It Happens.

roguemechanic@gmail.com (John Satory) — Wed, 28 Mar 2012 11:44:23 PDT

By popular demand, and quite a few requests lately, here's a rare look into RogueMechanic HQ. It's where everything pretty much happens relating to the business. As you can see in the photos, it's a fully equipped shop that has everything that I need to get the work done and then some. Besides shorage for bikes that are in the queue, two stands, my tools, and a 5HP 22 gallon compressor, it also has a Crest Ultrasonics 5.75gallon heated ultrasonic cleaner. I hope that this satisfies some of your curiosities. Thanks for checking in and as always, let me know...
