“A few years back we made a conscious decision to offer bike repair help and product information for free on our YouTube channel. Our goal was to take away the intimidation of working on a bike and show that it is much easier to do than people think. We have a wide range of videos geared toward both the home mechanic and the professional. We hired three full-time people to help produce these videos and we are more than thrilled that over 100,000 people have subscribed to our channel,” — Eric Hawkins, President, Owner and Chief Mechanic of Park Tool
