I still have my Hozan spoke threader, onto which I’ve installed a 13 ga threading die. I long ago bought a used Wheel Fanatyk Morizumi spoke cutter/threader to be able to buy blank DT Swiss spokes by the box of 500.
Hi Danielle 😊 good to see you again, and sound advice on what parts to have in stock. It's always a juggling act to have stuff you need for day to day seviceing / repairs, but not accumulate dead stock tying up capital that you need somewhere else. Perhaps every so often have a fire sale of excess stuff to get some money back, advertised imaginately it could bring potential return customers who see what your about and come back for future work doing. Just an idea from an old retired guy who once had his own business, please keep bringing us your videos as I think they are great. Best wishes to you and your's, kind regards Stuart Uk.
I would also add 7, 8, 9 speed cassettes that should cover like 80% of "normal" people. By the time most people come in to for a new chain it's easy to sell them a cassette too.
Really loved this video. Also, for what it's worth, based on my experience, you gave some excellent advice - and explained it in a nice, logical way. I'd love to see/hear more about the over-the-phone diagnostics (how to figure out which parts to get). I expect it may be a tough one to relay in a video, but maybe just hitting the high points and dealing with the most common misunderstandings and problems could help. Relja
I have never used Amazon as a "wholesale" source - aside from ethical reasons and them not caring about ANYONE at all, the product on Amazon has become iffy and full of fakes. There are a bunch of reputable ways to get parts that also support people who support you (BTI, Midway, etc) that I definitely lean toward that before giving any more money to the Bez
