yeah, it's REI in house...I was starting to feel like a reject...
the used bike I want is an hour drive away...but I went and looked at new one in store...man this is a nice bike...it's pretty, it's light, it feels great...I would love input as to how it holds up long term...I am VERY active on another forum, a car forum and I am used to people jumping in with both feet with opinions...so this indifference throws me off...
