    Happy trails, or maybe roads, in your case. I still want to know what you are talking about. You never answered any questions, or gave any clarification. You just gave two hypothetical situations. You do have one thing correct, someone is lying. Someone…

    Anybody else wonder what the other side of the story is?

    Please explain what you mean by a boutique shop vs. a shop that is not boutique. Seriously.

    Also, what do you mean by the old IF guard voting with their feet? Would love to know what this means.

    I can respect your opinion about your feelings about opening 2 dealers within 1 mile of each other. To each his own.

    Mike. What is a mass market shop? I bought my IF from a shop that also sold other brands, like Surly, Giant, Trek. Is this bad? Is my IF of lesser quality, or is it infected with some larger brand germs? It did hang in the shop for a few days as those other bikes sat around it, gazing in awe.

    Did IF say that they are going to start making “stock” sizes again? They haven’t done that in awhile. I’m not sure when they stopped, but I would guess 2002. We need some more information from you here. That’s the only way that your situation makes sense, if they were too again start making a “general” 17 inch frame/54cm frame. Do you all think they are going to start doing that?

    Maybe you got fitted and picked up your IF from a special bike shop that I have yet to hear about. Please tell us more.

    Yes, I saw it. Did anyone get to pick it up? It was ridiculous, at 13.9 lbs., I think. I have never lifted a bike so light. All the IF people were great to talk to at the HUGE booth! Wow is right.
