Rant: Just hit 1000 flat fixes on my bench log and I'm not proud of it

Honestly, I've been at this shop in Austin for about 18 months now, and I finally tallied up my repair tickets from the system. Ngl, seeing that number made me realize how many folks are riding on totally worn out tires or with the wrong tube pressure. Has anyone else had a specific repair count slap them in the face like that?

Ever think tire pressure didn't matter?

That's a wild number to see all at once. Really shows how much basic maintenance gets ignored. The pressure thing is huge, seen so many pinch flats from people just pumping and forgetting. Makes you wonder what else is getting missed out there.

Yeah, "pinch flats" are a total rookie mistake.
