Kraynick’s Bike Shop & A Beautiful Bicycle Restoration Video

November 14, 2017 Lindsay

krayniks bicycle restorationThis video just popped up on the Pittsburgh subreddit and it is worth 5 minutes of your time.

This video checks all of the boxes for me… pretty Pittsburgh pictures, check, a story about locally owned business, check, vintage bicycles, check (I have a hot pink one in my basement waiting for a restoration).
