Ethics
"La Bonne Vitesse" means "The Right Speed". Here, we:
are always fully honest
drink coffee or beer depending on the mood
try to work with European parts as much as possible
take care of the environment
take every job (provided we have time and it makes sense to have us do it)
love to nerd out about your bike
sometimes work for cheap, sometimes not
sometimes work quick, sometimes not
work alone or with others depending on the need
sometimes like, sometimes dislike what the bike industry is pushing
rant on 11spd on ebikes (you can still come)
love the work we do and hope you'll love it too
