    I am a daily commuter, but mostly it’s harsh Canadian winters with salted roads combined with poor storage and maintenance. Tis hell on bicycle parts 😅

      @Evkob @salvagepunk when I commuted in the UK, 200 miles a week year round I ended up just getting a new bike every 5 years. It was cheaper than replacing drive train and wheels. Plus I cracked the frame on one.
