There is a guy who does his own repairs on one he rides on the Green Bay Trail every 4th of July from Evanston to Highland Park. But you'd have to sit there on the trail next year waiting for him since I don't have his phone number. They're around -

Try Rudy's, there is one mechanic that has been there 20+ years. I bet he could help you out!

Try Ezra and Bobby at Green Machine on Montrose and Paulina. They are a certified Penny Farting service center. Together they have a combined experience of over 30 years.

I think they offer discounts on wheels with spokes longer than 260mm

Great guys...
