[QUOTE=Hachi;6991408]Theres a shop near my house but they only sell diamondback and raleigh. Everything else is about a mile away, which isn't that much of a hassle but it means I cant really hit up more than 2 or 3 bike shops in a single day. This bike was reccomended to me on another forum though.

Oh yeah, also I'm opposed to grip shifters. I don't like them as much as the other type that you have to 'click' rather than twist. I just dont think it's very comfortable.

Have the LBS swap out the grip shifts for some trigger shifters. Do it at the time of sale. Cheaper that way than doing it later on.

A couple of other bike suggestions (that come w/o grip shifters): The Kona Dew and the KHS Urban Xpress.
