Appreciation post: Hit 500 bottom bracket overhauls this year

I was cleaning my bench last night and counted the old cartridge bearings in my scrap bin. There were over 500 of them, which means I've done that many BB jobs since January. It surprised me because our shop in Tacoma doesn't even specialize in that. It made me realize how much of our work is just basic maintenance that people put off. What's your most common 'put-off' repair that you end up doing constantly?

My buddy's chain looked like a rusted slinky.

Hey @rivera.holly, wasn't that probably his derailleur, not the chain?
