On Val’s weekly ride with Becky, she heard that Charles (the head wrench at Trail Head) was leaving to start his own place. Turns out that he bought the Broken Spoke in San Carlos. This is the place I originally had my order with for the Blur, back before I decided to order my 5-Spot.
Charles is a great mechanic, and one of the reasons that Trail Head has such a fine reputation. And now that he’s going to have a shop much closer than Trail Head, I can’t imagine I’ll be going down there after my bike gets tuned up next week. Can’t say I’ll miss driving all the way down there!
Val says that they’ll be selling Specialized and Maverick, two of the same lines that Trail Head carries, which is different than Broken Spoke’s previous lines.
