So, what happens if a person has a bike that they want to replace a component on but can't get the bike to the co-op?
There's a co-op an hour plus bus ride from me. It used to be a great place to go for parts. now most everything is kept in a locked room. Want a rear derailleur? You have to wait until you can get someone to unlock the door and bring you the box with rear derailleurs. Want a matching front derailleur or shifter? Again you have to wait for a person to be free to unlock the door again and then they bring you a box of front derailleurs or shifters but not both and only after they take the box of rear derailleurs with them. Extremely inefficient.
Cheers
