no. but considering you can get four for your car for the cost of 2 or 3 mtb springs that are smaller and shortertu plang said:is anyone making u buy a titanium spring?
yeah i know the owner of my LBS is cruising around in a Porsche after work :roll:fiddler said:I also think our sport is being limited by greedy bike shops and distributors over pricing bikes and products. For example, you can buy armor about 15-20% cheaper at a moto shop than a bike shop.
I don't necessiarly think it is because they are trying to make large profits, I think it has more to do with shops being inefficient and having poor customer service
I admit there are however some shops out there (ie Phantom Cycles)(no I don't work for them) who seem to be on the right track.
I think Greedy is the wrong word but there is certinly somthing up with clothing and armour prices in bicycle shops. With Australia's parrallel Import laws the bike shops are getting there gear from the same places the moto shops are so why are gloves, armour etc 20-30% cheaper????Ty said:yeah i know the owner of my LBS is cruising around in a Porsche after work :roll:fiddler said:I also think our sport is being limited by greedy bike shops and distributors over pricing bikes and products.
