..Except that I work in a small low-to-mid-end bike shop in a near third-world country and mostly wrench on 20-yo beater MTB-s for customers that count every single cent they put towards the repairs. If it were up to me I'd send bikes like this right out the door/replace parts with something more serviceable, however I'm but a wrench and the owner makes these kinds of calls.
