Bike mechanics really are the backbone of the bike industry. Without them, we'd be riding around on creaky, squeaky death traps. Owen Coutts has been a mechanic since 2007, working both in bike shops and as a race mechanic. He has met every type of customer you can imagine, so he thought he'd tell you how not to be a 'bad' customer and piss off your bike mechanic!
