Let me add that once you find a worthy shop, support them by spending your cycling dollars there. . .even if they're a little more expensive than the on-line houses. Send your friends there and tell them why. Once you establish a relationship, they'll fall over themselves to serve you. All this happy horse-**** said, always be looking for the shop's continuing good service. . .things change. [If you're in the Eastern Panhandle of West Virginia, drop a private message and I'll point you to a great shop. (no affiliation)]

By the way Diesel', are 'Chrysler, Dodge, and Jeep' good or bad examples of sales vs. support?
