      @@willcowen2152 you’re right, and many are not around anymore. Brick and mortar bike shops need to change their business model and approach to sales. I’ve always recommended that bike shops remind every customer before they leave, “ if you find something that really appeals to you online, we can help you pick the size that fits you best and make some customizations to the fit. We don’t carry every line, but we have access to the majority of manufacturers.” So many shops get hung up on their product lines and don’t make the extra effort to get customers what they want. And because the majority of bike shops are selling the same big five brands, they’re losing out on a lot of big dollars from customers looking for something special. Also, the manufacturers and distributors are guilty of setting local bike shops up for limited success. The whole tradition of massive booking orders, and the lack of availability thereafter means shops are stuck with on inventory. The industry is due for an overhaul. Just in time delivery and inventory management needs to be implemented.
