So who is this Ramblin' Wrench?

So who is this Ramblin' Wrench?

I'm Jim Brittain. I started wrenching on bikes shortly after I got back into them, a couple of decades ago...

I started by taking a class on maintaining my own bike, and found out I liked it, and that there was more and more I could do. I’ve built two bikes from parts, and maintain my wife’s bikes. I read everything I could get my hands on, and watched WAY too many Youtube videos. I started doing work for friends, and worked briefly in a bike shop… and now I can bring those skills to you.

Above, you see me fixing a wheel with a broken spoke on a ride (the rider was able to get going again!). I’ve done any number of those “meatball” repairs outside the shop, and I’m lead mechanic at the New Brunswick Bike Exchange. I’ve seen a lot! Your bike will be safe (and happy!) with me.
