There are a few here that think that if you own a LBS bike over say $500 you're an elitist or "bike snob". Personally I don't start on that until you get to the guy's with the high end Colnago and De Rosa dust collectors. The guys that do a 10 mile ride once a month.
If you're really going to ride it, then spend the money. More power to you, but if you're going to let it sit.............
