| 418.1 | How did you like the store? | STRATA::DESHARNAIS | | Wed Aug 12 1987 12:26 | 5 |
| Is this the store that recently opened in Boston? Was it worth
the trip?
Thanks,
Denis

Thank's in advance.

| Uninformed folks get informed by doing a DIR/TITLE=NASHBAR and
discovering that note 342 discusses the Nashbar Outlet store in
Needham, MA, including directions.

| 418.4 | Another bargain | CIMNET::JOHNSON | Matt Johnson | Fri Oct 16 1987 10:58 | 5 |
| The Needham store currently has last year's Race SIS (Tange 2 tubing,
74� parallel angles, Shimano 600 components throughout) on sale
for $349. I tried to think of an excuse to buy one, but I couldn't.

| 418.5 | Indeed, an excuse *TO* buy it would take some thinking up | MENTOR::REG | My new suit is wet | Mon Oct 19 1987 13:38 | 2 |
|
re .4 Huh ? You just listed all the reasons to *NOT* buy it.
|
| 418.6 | A lot of triathletes have paid $700 for the same basic bike | CIMNET::JOHNSON | Matt Johnson | Mon Oct 19 1987 14:54 | 5 |
| In a way, I agree with you. However, I'm thinking of taking up
cyclocross, and I didn't want to submit my GOOD bike to that
torture....

Thanks Matt and sorry snobs, but I got down to Needham yesterday
and got a 23" Race SIS. I would really like the Vitus 579, but
with the 600 SIS set up it's around a grand. Now I have something
alot better than my Puch ( that finding 8th is an artform), and
when I get $500.00 I'll buy the Vitus frame and transfer components,
and still wind up at only $850.00.

| Hey all you tall and short riders out there. I dropped by the Nashbar outlet
store last night to get my bike fix, and saw a couple of good deals. The
first is their Race SIS bike, $349. If you can take a pink frame, 600 SIS
components, and a 24" or 25" (or maybe larger) this looks like a very good
buy. I have two bikes already so I had to say no. (Hey Scott C, check it
out - Laura said they were your size) But then, just around the corner,
cleated shoes for $5 and $10. I don't remember the brands, but the sizes only
went up to 40, which is about a woman's 8 1/2, or men's 6-1/2. My girlfriend,
who biked twice last year, decided for $5 she couldn't go wrong. She now has
cleated shoes and I don't! If you have smaller feet, check it out, ya'all!
See this note and 342 for directions and hours.

| RE: 418.8
Well..., I'm just finishing a bedroom for daughter #2. If
I were to buy a new bike (which I can't afford and have
no place to store), my wife would probably be looking for
another husband (who doesn't bike).
Anyway, it would be a good excuse to go there anyway, even
though I can't afford a good cable housing right now.
Scott (happy for big frames)
