Mechanic Monday Tip of the Week. Back to basics part 4

Have you been in the same career for a long time?
Since it is easy to forget the early days of a job it is also easy to think that everyone knows those basic aspects of our jobs.
Now with that thought in mind this next series of tips will be those type of elementary items and the series called "Back to basics."

This week tip is to stop struggling!!!!
When you are trying to take something apart or put it back together on your bike and you find yourself struggling and frustrated odds are there is a 90+% chance there is another way to do the job easier. So the first step is to stop what you are doing. Grab a soda and look at what you are doing if an easier way doesn't become self evident then head for the internet. Search both You Tube and Thumper Talk for another method. If that doesn't produce an answer ask a mechanic friend for some advice. There is almost always an easier way then struggling and getting frustrated.

Stay greasy my friends
