I went to Citizen Chain in North Beach last weekend and they had some nice options, but they had a small selection I'd say (not sure if that's the average size inventory for a bike shop though).

Also, I don't care about a fashion statement haha. I just want a bike that is comfortable, does the job, and will last.
