Bargain Basement Bike - Part II

 It now looks as if it will be late next week or early the following week before the bike makes it to me. Apparently, the shop found another task that needed to be completed as they were re-assembling the bike — something to do with re-spraying the tank liner? Anyway, it whatever it was takes a couple of days to complete. I guess that they can spray it one day, and it takes a couple or three days to dry.

At this point, Clinton’s not making any money on this bike. In fact, they’ve probably lost money on it, as what I’ve paid them has been more than eaten up in labor time and shop materials. In a way, I feel bad. But not that bad. Frankly, they can find and correct anything they want to before turning it over to me — as long as there aren’t extra charges involved. I’d rather that they ”find things” before I get it and find things.
