My name is JMT3 and I’m a spares hoarder.

[JMT3]

Years ago when I had some mechanicals that left me unable to ride, since the lbs was not open and I’m so picky about what I ride anyway and a good chance the LBS didn’t have what I needed anyway. I started hoarding parts. My main road bike is Red eTap 11 speed and I have 4 back up cassettes and an entire eTap group just in case, tires, chains, wheelsets and latex tubes for at least 2 years. I do the same for my other bikes as well. Since I have started doing this and do all my own wrenching, live and die by the torque wrench. I have not had a single mechanical since starting this practice. I have had flats.

Anyone else like me?
