Mechanic of the Week p/b Abbey Bike Tools - Monday December 12th 2016 #mechanicmonday

PBMA is excited to introduce our newest Mechanic of the Week, Sean McCormick of Carytown Bicycle Company in Richmond, Virginia!

For those of you just tuning into #mechanicmonday, this is where we feature one mechanic each week, chosen at random from nominations submitted the week before. It’s all about mechanics supporting fellow mechanics – even behind the scenes, where we are proud to say that our Mechanic of the Week is presented by none other than Abbey Bike Tools and the Friar himself!

Sean has been a mechanic for well over a decade. He was nominated by his friends and customers, who wrote to us about Sean’s tireless dedication and commitment to finding the right solution for each bicycle and person in his shop. Sean has worn many different hats in the cycling industry, but in any role, he is always solution-oriented and budget-conscious.

Sean and his colleagues focus on customer service above all else, because they believe that every customer should be treated as they themselves would like to be treated – “with respect, understanding, and scrupulous attention to detail.” With this in mind, Sean leads an assortment of maintenance clinics based out of the shop, through which he is able to connect with the local cycling community and inspire a new generation of home and shop mechanics.

We are proud of Sean’s dedication to cycling mechanics, and it is our pleasure to feature him today. For everyone reading this at home, we encourage you to join the #MOTW conversation: Post a picture of YOUR favorite mechanic and tag us @probicyclemech, #probma, or #mechanicmonday, or nominate him or her to be featured in next week’s post!
