She does quite a lot (because I'm too lazy to do her stuff as well)
She's bled brakes on the 26er in Poland for example and she was the one that measured my chain and told me it was at 1%. She does my bar taping because I don't do bar taping. All I need to do is get her building good wheels and I'll have a complete package. :D
Then again, she did just let her cranks fall off on a ride last year and has a tendency to ignore noises that subsequently result in exploding rear wheels...
hippy
Never heard of it. But I don't want more paperwork/admin in my life. I write a couple of notes in google calendar, usually about powermeter battery replacement times so I know going into an event if it's fresh or not. Tyres and chains and all that other shit, I do when I remember or before an event. Like, my Stanton is 1% wear and I have a 0.75% one here which I presume was what I thought was my new replacement one (doh). I have a reminder in google that tells me to check chain wear each month but when you have so many bikes it's easy to just go "oh well I'm not riding that much it can wait".
I need to service the RD on the Stanton, the clutch is basically non-functional, so I'm kind of leaving it to do all at once.
