One of the reasons the tech nerd in my is against some of the fancy modern e-bikes like Cowboy. And the silly wireless shifter stuff.
The only thing I realize and accept I won’t repair myself are hydraulic brakes and wheel truing. At least I understand the mechanism, I just think someone with more experience should do it. Everything else on a bike should be simple enough to fix with the right (cheap-ish) tool, an hour or so of time and a good manual.
