Why are some bike shops so clueless?

HUTCHMAN:
i think i've done just about every bike shop Cornwall.Had a shed load of goodies out of Penzance cycle centre-USA Supergoose,cook bros hubs,bullseye cranks for starters.

oldbmxrider:
LOL  ;D ;D ;D ,YOU  DONT THINK IT MAY BE A WIND UP? any chance these bike dealers know the parts the have from bitd are worth somthing? HELLO?

poolysheriff:
I went into a local bike shop who dealt in BMX's in the 80s etc
Asked about old Bmx stuff
Yes he said i,ll have a good look around for you

I got a few bits n bobs mongoose stuff really ,cranks ,bb,headsets some chain a few grips etc

But he said the same thing
"I had loads of the bloody stuff and i binned the lot as i couldn't sell it and it was getting in the way"
Wheels ,frame and fork sets padsets  :-\

And as i said he was a mongoose dealer so i expect rpo class wheels etc were binned or scrapped  :'(

He said one day i can have a look in the shops loft as he ain't been in there since he got his new hip  :LolLolLolLol:

I hope that was 20 years ago  ;)

stu27:
i have arranged a look around a bike shop that has been there :) since 77 and as the man on the phone said"its full of clutter",hopefully
