I can understand your point but I did not start this company to become a LBS. We are different in that we cater to every rider and make it a point to promote riding bicycles and not buying them. Our system does make money and through sheer volume we can pay the bills and continue to grow. When a BUY Cycle Trader representative shows up in your town or city, you will see what I mean, we are more than a bike shop, we are the future!
