This works well in almost ANY size town. As long as it has a scrap yard, there are bikes available!A metal scrapyard is a good place to try your bike part shopping, you pay scrap metal price, and if you have not much stuff, they just let you have it for free.
A got a free front disc brake caliper and a couple spark plug wires 2 weeks ago, last summer I got a rear suspension shock for my dual suspension Raleigh for FREE, and other things for free.
Free is an awesome price, I'll take it!
