The OP didn't mention the brand of bike, but all vendors have differing approaches to pricing.
Some will have a single MSRP with a fixed margin. Others will have an MSRP, an "advertised price" as well as a minimum price. The minimum price is contracted and bikes can't be sold for less or the shop risks losing their distributorship. Sometimes this minimum is only applicable for a certain time period, allowing for late season closeouts, etc.
Keep in mind that due to the spike in fuel prices and short availability for many bikes and parts, dealers may be less likely to negotiate lower prices, not more.
