2290.0. "Good (mountain) bike shop in Dallas" by CASEE::LALLI (Didier - OSAG Valbonne - DTN 828.5423) Tue May 26 1992 08:59

My dad is going on business trip to Dallas and I want him to bring me back some
stuff for my mountain bike. I have a few questions:

- Can anyone recommend a good bike shop in Dallas? Address, telephone number?

- I'd like a Girvin Flextem, does anyone know the price of it these days?
I anderstood that there are 3 diameters (22.2, 25.4, and 28.6), 3 lengthes 
(120/135/150) and 2 colours (black/gray or yellow). Is this correct? Is there
any other thing to choose from?
Techie question : should I take the same length as I have on my current stem or
longer?

- I'm also looking for Onza bar ends but there seem to be different kind. I want 
the aluminium, short ones, do they have a reference and what price are they?

Thanks a lot for any help

Didier

	No info about Dallas but I believe the Flexstem also comes in steel and alloy versions, with the alloy one being more expensive. Rod

	Come to Marlboro Bicycle to buy your GIRVIN flexstem. He gives DEC employees 20%... make the price ~$83. Worth a ride from Littleton.
