Hey Pete, I require your services again (headset/stem) but I am without a car at the moment

I might just have to take it to a shop within walking/riding distance to Jen's apt

Shop should do it pretty cheap (but they won't do as good a job, lots will just hammer the cups on). When will you have a car again?

$65 to press in a headset? F that, you could take a Taxi to my house for less.

$10 to remove the old headset
$25 to press in the new headset
$30 to install the new fork

Jen has a car but I will be heavily relying on her for general transportation, stuff like this I want to limit to keep tensions at bay
