I know LL Bean is a good store for clothing and camping supplies, but what about bikes?
Also, my husband's bike is a Huffy from 1978, weighs a freakin' ton, and my bike (my daughter's old bike), is from the early 80s. Does anyone even WANT these bikes anymore?
I have a friend that has two K2's, a K2 Zed mtb and a hybrid. He really enjoys both. I just bought a 29er mtb from bikesdirect.com. Don't jump at something that's on sale until you've decided what you want and what size you want. Than you can wait for a sale or shop around a bit more, until you find the deal you want.
