Local bike mechanic needed for Ride1Up ebike - brakes
We have two ebikes from Ride1Up. Love them. My 700 series brakes are squealing and needing some attention. However having difficulty finding any bike shops in Upstate who will work on the brakes because it's an e-bike. I know Trek will work on their own, but not others. Anyone have any leads on a bike guy who can fix the brakes and is not so worried about e-bike liability and warranty topics? I have a LBS in Augusta who is great and will work on them, but we don't plan on heading that way soon. There's gotta be a handy guy out there able to replace some brake pads, etc. Also think good business to be had as I see ebike growth in the Upstate.
