That's $1.07 per bike.
Apparently they thought it would take an hour to do the job properly - so if they took that long and their boss wanted to only pay for the results, they earn a dollar an hour.
Not legally of course, since piecework is not allowed to work out to less than minimum wage - so most likely after a some number of yelling-at incidents they'd just be replaced with someone needing a job badly enough to be willing to give a bike only eight minutes of attention.
