I don't think I've walked into a dealer that sells em...in any of the bike shops I've been to across a bunch of states.
They were not as big as Schwinn/Trek/Specialized/etc. and maybe my experience is skewed because their headquarters was in Los Angeles, but it was not uncommon to occasionally encounter one of their bikes or a dealer that sold them. Pretty sure they even had pro teams and sponsored grassroots clubs as well. I remember liking their track bikes with the cool curved seat tube.
