I'm opting for the LBS. Its already been 2 weeks since I bought it, and I still haven't ridden it. I am the most anal retentive moron ever. I buy a cheap bike and spend more on 2 stage automotive paint, headset, saddle, bartape, BB, tires, shoes, etc than the bike probably cost new. Least the time that the fork is in the LBS I can reupholster the $5 dollar fizik.
