someone needs to clue dude into the fact that rule one to building bikes is NEVER (even if its a shitty steel one speed) clamp the frame in the stand. get a seat post or one of those specially made Park things. i feel the collective cringe from mechanics world wide watching this fail. oh and if youve ever been a bike mechanic you probably know too that inviting the customer into the mechanics bay is a recipe for disaster. good luck getting any repairs done. but i guess thats part of dudes business model..yakking all day with hipsters...good luck paying the bills with that...nice couch tho.
Actually, the cringe I feel is from the first comment and the pervasive and boring attitude of so many bicycle mechanics that they fucking know everything and are better than YOU at it. That there is no world outside their head, and that EVERYONE should be on the same page and know better about what really in this country is still considered a toy. Get over yourself and your lonely sphere of expertise.

On my own bike, I'll clamp a steel frame all day. FTW.
