	I have done business with Bike Nashbar & Performance Bicycle
	shop.  Both have prices lower than local shops.  Nashbar is
	consistently less expensive than other mail order houses and
	is surprizingly quick in delivery.  I ordered a bike from
	them on Sunday(they are in Ohio) and had it on Friday(in California).
	Everything else has been as quick.  Performance Bicycle usually
	takes at least three weeks for delivery.  Both have an 800
	telephone number, but both specify that it is for orders only,
	not questions.  They seem to be pretty flexible on this point.
