Reload Bags
Does anyone have much experience with them in terms of ordering bike parts? I did a search and it just turned up all the threads on bags. I notice the website talks about all the used keirin parts they sell. Has anyone ever gotten any? Is it worth it (for bars & stems), or should I just buy some new stuff from Business Cycles or something? Is there good availability?
PS - Is it true they have a store in Seattle too? anyone been?

they do have a store in seattle. i had a great experience with them when i ordered my bag, but all i know about the parts is that they don't have any frames right now. nice folks though. give 'em a call.

no bike hardware in Seattle that I saw when I was there. Not sure what the plans are as far as carrying anything as far as time frame.
Best Bet: drop them a line! They are super friendly and very customer oriented.

the philly store is the original one and both do the custom bags. Ellie and roland started it in philly and ellie moved back to seattle and started up that shop. I was in th ephilly shop yesterday and they had 5 frames, some gloves, bars, stems, and a few other things. they get the frames from a shop in Japan. i as of yet have no experience with purchasing anything but bags.

where is their new shop located? i remember they said that they would have a few keirin frames in their new shop (all small 50-52). if you want one go immediately because i think they will go fast. i never ever see keirin frames on ebay. they have some good hardware at their shop from what i remember, some dura ace high flange track hub plus those new track hubs from boston with a screw on lockring (these seem heavy in my opinion). they also had a few nice vintage jerseys. i remember them saying that their new shop would be bigger and would be able to house more stuff. i ordered a bag from them about 3 weeks ago, it was easy (i did this in person). the hardest thing is figuring out what you want because there are so many options for customization.

They do have a few frames there. Decent sizes. $250-500. The new shop is great looking. I really like it. The shop is at 608 or so N. 2nd st. Right above spring garden. Near the 700 Club. I picked up my new laptop bag and peeped the parts.
