And what is it you and they do for a living? You don't learn about bicycles just because you ride them. Sounds like your friends knowledge is as limited as yours. I build, service, and repair hundreds if not thousands of bikes every year. I've been doing so for nearly 30 years. This includes shop, pro team, national team, and world cup experience. Don't make me embarrass you.
