You must have some yuppie, euro, weird or really screwed up bike. Another example of you trust fund $$ babies who never swung a wrench in you life (KT can, and a big one BTW) That's why you trust fund brats are hated in this community. You bitch yet your argument is devoid of any tech details to collaborate your claim with this BS story. This blog allows you to voice your opinion (like some of my stuff people here hate) But I don't buy devoid of detail rant BS story..sorry dude -Nino She had to order parts, —doubt it.

Repeatedly forgot to order parts, did halfass jobs, and then blames the customer...all with a salty attitude This was some time ago & I know she was overwhelmed but get outa the kitch if you cant take the heat. Ill go to Bravo on Wilson anyday over Velo...unless you really need your neon parts and fixed gear only accessories to look cool in bushwick...buena suerte KT might mean well, but damn is she hard to work with.

Yes, not only a FS teacher, but she volunteered as a coach for the Harlem Figure Skating Club when she lived in Manhattan, a fabulous inner city program for kids, keep a B average in school, free skates and lessons! Unfortunately she had to give that up when she moved to Brooklyn, too far a commute :( Tony!

I started a Facebook page for her and you're welcomed to "fan" her :) http://www.facebook.com/pages/Brooklyn-NY/Bushwick-Bike-Shop-Velo-Brooklyn/106308796057115 There's a link to the New York Magazine's Best Bike Shop 2010 too. (there's many links to BushwickBk too, they've been super to her) Also on my blog, there's a section on my blogroll called Girl With A Wrench, includes a segment from Shepard Smith's Fox News show. Also the Pedal trailer where she gets "whacked" at the end. I can LOL about it now. Hi, KT’s mom here. I started a Facebook page for her and you’re welcomed to “fan” her :)

If you want to see one of her legendary bike accidents, check out the documentary "Pedal". KT gets rammed by a car at a NYC intersection during an alley cat race. This girl has nine lives. BTW, KT is also a figure skating teacher?? WTF? She never fails to surprise. We love KT way out here in Japan.
