Thanks all,
I'm about 17 years shy of the 50+ forum, but I hope to still be biking by then.

Have not been in a bike shop in nearly 7 years, as I don't want to purchase new, and I don't feel right using their bikes for fitting/testing when I'm not going to make a purchase. There are a few nearby that I may visit when I start needing parts (I like to shop local).
Thanks for the tip on the Presta valve, I had not really started thinking about pumps until today.
Found a 2000 GT Saddleback (reasonably) cheap that needs love, trying to get hold of the guy so I can go check it out. But now it's gonna have to wait until next week...my wife and I are heading to Texas tomorrow to work on a Huey!
