How do know I'm getting a good bike?
Here’s our “SLS” bike philosophy: Strong, Light and Simple. A bike should be strong, durable and dependable.
It should be as light weight as possible without compromising durability. The design of a bike should be simple so that repairs and maintenance is not complicated.
Should I buy a bike online?
Online bike buying is risky. Typically the bikes sold on line are bikes that manufacturers can’t get into bike shops. In other words bike shops don’t want them for a number of reasons, but it’s typically a quality issue. Here are top most important concerns to consider when purchasing a bike on line: Not all bikes are measured the same. Will it fit?, who will fit it to you? How much more will that cost?
Who will assemble it? Who will service it? How much more will that cost? Who will help you with warranty issues? When you take your obvious “on line purchase” to your local bike shop, because you and your friends can’t get it to work properly, they will know that you left them out of the loop, that you don’t support them and are not likely to be concerned about the local economy. They may fear that you will be one of their least tolerable customers, those who use them to get as much information about the products they sell so that they can then buy them on line, in effect stealing as much information as they can so that they can save themselves a little money. We know that we are competing with the internet and there will be certain items you will find that can save you a little money. All we’re saying is that you will likely need the services of your local bike shops in the futureand if you do not support them they may soon disappear. Then all you will have is the internet and kids at the big box stores to help you with you cycling needs.
