new Performance Bike store in Plano
 
I just saw the sign, but they havent moved in yet. It'll be next to the LA Fitness at Spring Creek and I-75

jsharr 02-27-07 11:34 AM

could you ask them to move closer to 75/190 please?

Hobartlemagne 02-27-07 02:17 PM

Ill leave them a note

jsharr 02-28-07 08:07 AM

Let me know what they say.

How many bike shops can survive in this area? Not that I mind having a performance bike right down the street

Competition is a wonderful thing. I'll bet Plano Cycling & Fitness isn't too thrilled though.

Uhhhh.... I'd love to hear the reason they applied for that. *scratches head in bewilderment*

The Fort Worth store manager indicated a June opening date for the Plano store. Be sure you're on the mailing lists to get the $20 off $50 coupons and various other grand opening deals.

Just don't forget the stores that have supported everyone for all these years. ;)

I will most likely check Performance out, but RBM will get the majority of my business, as they have for the last 20+ years.

I went over to the store yesterday- there was quite a lot of activity going on- bike assembly and stuff. I asked one of the guys when they'd open- he said it will be Wednesday 4/4

No way they expect to be open this Wed! Wow that was quick. Nice to have them in town, and I have already received a coupon for 500 team points or $50. Sure hate the sales tax, but now we won't pay shipping. I will continue to support RBM and PC&F without a doubt.

IS open today! WENT there! LIKE it! But not a lot different from RBM's Coit store. They DO have the Scattante bikes tho. Good for checking out before buying.

forensicchemist 04-04-07 05:33 PM

hope its better than the Fort Worth store.....I was disappointed when I visited.

I'll probably stop by tomorrow.

Stray Cat 04-04-07 10:52 PM

On my errands list tomorrow to give it a look.

I stopped by the new Performance location in Plano today. It's a pretty nice setup. I did not think their bike prices were all that great. I honestly don't think RBM and Plano Cycling & Fitness have anything to worry about.

I would agree with this comment about 95%. Both these stores definitely fear the sale price performance will throw down. Other than that I probably will rarely buy from Performance. The sale tax thing is a total downer!!

jsharr 04-14-07 03:49 PM

Made my first visit to the store today. Not impressed. Compared to RBM, it is badly outgunned. Prices were okay, esp. the things that were up to 40% off, but selection was limited. Two brands of bar wrap. House brand and Cinelli, and only two colors of Cinelli cork tape.

TechJunkie 04-14-07 08:00 PM

Performance's apparel is the only area where they seem to set themselves apart, pricewise that is. RBM is still my home.
