Subject: SE PA area bike shops

I've recently soured on a shop that I've dealt with for quite a while. Seems like anymore they're more concerned with moving product than the actual needs of the customer.

So I'm wondering what some of your go-to LBS are.

My ideal shop would be one that asks probing questions and does a comprehensive fitting before I even sit on a bike and makes recommendations based on said fitting.

I'm close to New Jersey too, so if you have an NJ shop that you deal with I'd love to hear them too.

Thanks in advance.

There are a number of shops that I like in my area (Montgomery Co.) High road cycles in Doylestown is a good shop as is Guy's. I bought from Keswick in Glenside but never got a real warm and fuzzy feel but they have never done me wrong.

Guy's bikes in Feasterville. Bob Burke is the master fitter. He's super nice, very approachable, not at all snobby, is willing and actually wants to talk to you about what works and what doesn't.

I am a fan of Keswick in Glenside. The employees are always very helpful with my silly questions.

Hey folks, thanks for the responses. I'm actually leaning towards Guys.

A friend of mine used to race for them and always spoke very highly of the shop. I might have to check out Keswick too.

Thanks again.
