Netizen Reacts After His Customer Shares Frustrating Experience w/ E-Bike Repair Technician
A netizen shares his customer’s frustrating experience with another e-bike technician, who charged them a huge amount of cash.
Recently, Chael Solis Gabito, a Facebook user, shared a story online about one of his customers who had a bad experience with another e-bike technician. The post quickly went viral and garnered reactions from netizens.
In his post, Gabito explained that the customer had initially taken their e-bike to another technician, who charged them a huge sum of P8,500. The repairs included replacing the axle, drum brake, and tires, even though these parts were reportedly still in good condition.
Despite the costly repair, the work was poorly done, leaving the e-bike barely functional. The customer reported that after the repair, the e-bike had several issues.
The axle, which was designed for cargo bikes, didn’t fit properly, leaving gaps in the gearbox that made it impossible to secure the bolts. This caused the bike’s components to be loose and difficult to move, severely affecting its acceleration and overall performance.
When Gabito took a look at the e-bike, he found the real problem: the axle nut was the only part that needed adjustment. He restored the original parts without replacing anything and charged only P500 for the home service.

The e-bike was back to normal, running smoothly without any of the issues it had after the previous technician’s work. Gabito reminded e-bike owners to be cautious when choosing a technician.
Many internet users sympathized with the customer’s experience, urging people to seek trustworthy and skilled technicians to avoid similar issues.
“Nawala lang ako saglit tinaga na yung customer ko 8500 daw ahaha sa woodpecker to, pinalitan ng axle at drum brake at gulong kahit okay pa 8500 daw tas palpak pagka gawa hindi rin nagamit pinilit pa yung axle pang cargo knite, kahit hindi lapat may space sa gear box hindi mahigpitan at gumagalaw ang mga Allen bolts at Matigas paikutin, hirap umarangkada.
Pero ang ending sira lang yung axle nut lang at binalik ko na yung dati at ngayon okay na manakbo labor lang 500 homeservice walang parts na pinalitan”
