i'm pretty sure habitat has them, but i would call first - they're in the middle of remodeling and the place is kind of a mess. when they're done tho, its gonna be huge, about twice the size.

Just what we need, an even bigger bike habitat... so with the remodel, does that mean the prices are even higher?

They've always sold bikes... fancy bikes for the fancy soho crowd at fancy soho prices. I like Hal though, he's fun.
