Thanks!
fietsbob - Glad to hear you had some hands on experience with the Neko. This was no small purchase for me. I agonized over which bike to get for 4 months - longer than I take to buy a car!
This is the first time in my life to deal with a LBS. I wanted to buy my bike locally & have a relationship with the LBS. I've only been dealing with them for 2 mos & trying to get a feel for how this works & how they treat me, etc. So far, the owner has has been great & has recommended small things to me (accessories, etc but not changes to my bike) When I first asked him to put the bar ends on he didn't jump at the chance to make money, he actually talked me out of it. Then when I told him about my neck he agreed. So far, so good.
It's pretty intimidating at my age & weight to walk into a LBS!
