Depends on the bike shop. Jim Thill's shop Hiawatha Cyclery is well stocked with the kinds of practical bike gear I buy. Only shop in town like it and therefore the only LBS I go to. Other than vintage stuff, I buy all my bike gear there. (Jim is thinking "I've seen you about once in the past year, WTF?" I was well-stocked and did't have much time to ride last year so I hardly wore anything out...). -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
