I'm in the process of buying a $3000-$4000 bike at the moment. On Thursday I spent 2 hours riding bikes and chatting with the general manager of my LBS...he took the time to set each bike up the same with regards to saddle height,setback reach and bar height. I think I'm close to a decision and once I finally purchase I know they will spend another hour fitting me on the bike. I'm sure if it was a less expensive bike I would still get similar treatment but I'm also sure there is a lower limit in terms of cost. That said we have bought 3 bikes from them in the last two years (Hardrock for my son, Cannondale F5 for me and a Ruby for my wife) so they treat us well regardless.
