Well, it's out the door for a spin to Lynnwood. I gotta thrasher to buy. Thanks all!
I want to scream and throw things whenever someone tells me they would be happy with a Wal Mart bike. Maybe they are put in a trance by the colors or something, because around here, the only people who ride them regularly are illegal aliens.
Of course, someone who would buy a Wal Mart bike would likely buy their tools there, too. You can't reason with such people.
