Abstract:  
An email from an avid mountain bike rider piqued our interest in this surprising industry. Why surprising? Because its marketplace is knowledgeable about shot peening and appreciates it benefits! This is a refreshing change from the blank stares we usually get when we say that we are associated with "shot peening". (Have you noticed how quickly people appreciate its value when we explain what it is and how it increases the safeness of our cars and airplanes?)
