🚨 Freak-Out Friday: It’s Cold Outside, But the Shop is ON FIRE! 🛠️ (Live Q&A) 🎙️ Full Podcast 12

LIVE: Why I’m Booked Out Until March (2026 Industry Update) 🎙️ Full Podcast 12 In 2026, the local bike shop isn't just a retail store; it's a high-tech service sanctuary. While the thermometer drops, the service bay is "on fire" with riders looking to optimize their gear during the off-season. This Live Q&A is your chance to pull back the curtain on the "Winter Service Boom"—from the 100% e-bike tariff fallout that’s making repairs the smart financial move, to the 32-inch wheel revolution that has everyone asking if their current frame is obsolete. We’re going live to answer your toughest technical questions, talk 2026 industry trends, and show you exactly what’s on the stands right now. Whether you're curious about AI-drivetrain maintenance or the best way to "salt-proof" your winter commuter, bring your questions and let’s talk shop!
