I want to have my Gary Fisher tuned up and new tires. I'd rather support a MM member :D

I'm in Rochester Hills.

Goto 16 and Dequindre, there is a Bike shop there, the shop manager is a great friend of mine, his name is Steve. Kinda a goofy guy, but a damn good bike mechanic!

I forget the name of the shop.... its on the north side of the road across from Lowes.

also, check out Scarletts Schwin on M59 in Pontiac. I got my bike from there about 12 years ago, they do good work too.

Joe the place next to my shop isn't bad either. I prefer their shop in Birmingham, but they're owned by the same guy. I've never bought anything from the one next to me though.

anybody know about minelli mountain bikes? my wife won one a couple years ago and I just cleaned it up, oiled the gears, chain, adjusted brakes etc. I rode it around the block, first time its been ridin on. I was looking online and it looks like they go for like $700? Might sell it, because we have some other cheap ones and I don't ride enough to warrant having such a nice bike. If anyone has any info on them that would be great.

FWIW that bike will feel 10x better than a cheap bike if you ride with any consistency this summer :cool:

I probably won't, but who knows, its way to crazy for me, it has like shocks on the front, back, seat, some quick release wheels, whole bunch of crap. I might keep it though, I just need to hit up a bike shop and buy a water bottle holder. It reminds me of Bad Boys........
