I visited one of the local shops (local meaning the one 30 miles to the south, they are all 30 miles away and I consider 50 mile radius to be local, lol) to see what brands he sells as I'll be in the market sometime for a "fitness" hybrid bike. I'll be all over western PA to see all the various brands. He sells Giant and had one 2012 Escape, two women's 2013 Escapes, and 2 men's 2013 Escapes. All of them had kickstands as did I believe the various Giant Roams he had left on the floor.
