Yeah, I'm getting ready to make a similar purchase and have been wondering about what to ask them to throw in... I will be getting the bike, my LBS gives 15% off helmets w/purchase of a bike (i might as well start wearing one!) and a 15% off clothing coupon. But what should a guy (or gal) ask for to sweeten the pot w/o spoiling a possibly fruitful future relationship w/the LBS??? I also want a computer, my pedals aren't being switched out (not as of yet, anyhow), some grip bars would be nice, might as well get a new bottle and cage...
