How many bike shops for you to pick out your new bike? I have been to 5 shops so far and I have decided to visit 1 more before making a decision. That will be six points of view 4 or 5 brands and 6-7 personalities. I have discounted 3 of the stores based on the people that work there. But I am tossed up between 3 stores. So far all three seem really nice with good personalities and good presentations. So Far I am looking at the Trek Navigator and Jamis Explorer 2.0. and Gary Fisher (aka Trek) Tiburon S.
What should I look for in a shop? Should I expect a certain # of adjustments? Should I expect a discount os accessories? Should I expect anything included water bottle/ holder...anything? Should I buy from the store with the cheapest price or the one whit the most knowledgeable salesperson who rides. Should I buy from a really fat guy? I know I know Im a really fat guy too but you don't want to eat at a restaurant with an emaciated chef who never eats. Should I buy close or far away?
What does it take to get your sale. What do you want in a bike shop.
