Nothing against PB, but I feel like the brands at PB have less of a dealer restriction that the other brands require. You have to buy them in store. From my understanding, most of the big manufacturers want you to patronize the LBS, so there is no online sales allowed. For a company like PB, the dealer restriction would hamper the online/mail order business dramatically, so they carry brands such as GT and FUJI that allow online sales, not necessarily because of trustworthiness or quality. My 0.02 cents.
