The LBS here in town (Ridge Cyclery, Highland, IN) has a TON of NOS BIKES! I was looking at some old schwinns and raleigh's, and asked why they wanted $300 for an old bike (figuring it was well used). The sales kid said it was brand spankin new! The previous owner bought every frame and wheel set he could get his hands on. They have a back storage room FULL to the gills with NOS frames and parts......Too bad the shop is about worthless..... Everytime I go in, to give them another chance at earning my business, they blow it.
