Business Cycles question...
i have a question for those who have done business with Business Cycles...
how are their shipping rates? their website is pretty ambiguous with actual shipping costs and i was wondering what i can expect to pay...
also, are they where i can get the best price on black sugino 75s? they're the best i've seen, but some of ya'll have some better digging skills..
thanks!

they have a couple of options, i always go for the usps priority and he ships *fast* his prices are really good, and unless i get something on ebay used, i buy my track related stuff exclusively from him. awesome customer service and very knowledgeable.

John really understands fixed gear bikes.
I buy regularly from him and he spends time with me on the phone.
For good prices and good customer support, I rate both Businesscycles and Webcyclery as tops.

I bought some stuff from him a year ago. Very informative on the phone. He actually talked me out of buying a more expensive option because it made more sense. That was very cool.
Quick shipping. I definitely give him my business again.

for anything out of state (which is basically just Yojimbo's for me), I use John. THE BEST outside Illinois for track gear and knowledge.
And his dog will kill you. With slobber.

I enjoy picking up the phone and talking to John. Dry humor or just the hurricane alley attitude of dealing with the day to day BS makes my day. John is a good man. Enough said.

when I buy something from Business Cycles I feel like I'm supporting my LBS.
yes I live in Pennsylvania, yes Business Cycles is in Florida.
I have ordered from him less than 10 times over the last five years and somehow he remembers me when I call.
John is good people.

I think I'm going to buy my Bareknuckle from him. I'm in Tampa. Now I just need to justify the drive down to Miami to pick it up.

Driving to Business Cycles is worth it. When I was in Key West in July, I drove back up to Miami and stopped by (flew in and out of MIA). John Dacey is an excellent person to have a nice conversation with.
