Last couple of times I've been in there it's just been Barry trying to run the shop by himself.... on the phone while trying to weld frames, etc.
I think basically Tony Malone's marketing machine got them way more custom than they were big enough for, and now Barry's trying to make a ton of bikes while having to answer idiotic questions about bottom brackets all day from morons like me. Well, he was until I moved. I have other bike shops to pester now.
I'd fuck off to Wales for a break as well, frankly.
This is all speculation by the way.
