Ok Senseless advertising! But we are Milwaukee's only CF dealer and we have inventory, some of it 1 yr old as it took awhile to open. we are in kind of a strange location, but people have been seeking us out for our unique bikes and skilled mechanic. Only bents, trikes and CF's, Sell what you love and throw away the rest!!

Re: Milwaukee's only CF dealer
But you didn't really advertise. Give a few more details like where you are located, what you have in stock. Special deals etc. |

Re: Milwaukee's only CF dealer
Thanks Everyone: The response is overwhelming! We have recently moved,still have some exterior painting and need a sign, ours came in spelled wrong so it went back (is bicycle really that hard to spell?). I am glad to show bikes by appointmnet until we are better established, however test rides are prohibited until the roads are not so wet and salty. WWW.northshorewheels.com |

North, You should do well..."sell what you love and throw away the rest". That kind of says it all. Glad to have you out there putting the goods on the floor, thanks for the biz. Please post any CF adventures you manage to wrangle between business hours. |

Re: Milwaukee's only CF dealer
Best of luck North... if you have any CF ?'s etc. I'd be happy to share with you what's been working for me out on the west coast. I try and stock most of the entry point models, then offer custom frame set builds to take folks in the exact direction they want to go, be it a higher spec. SRAM, or Shimano kitted ride, or maybe a purpose built commute/touring bike or weekend play-thang. Randy's line-up is quickly absorbing/evolving into what most people have asked for (ergo, and mid-level Zenetik...now we have the Road, and a 27spd Citi...now we have the Street), so vocalizing your customers feedback certainly has an impact. Best of Luck, and welcome to the Revolution eh, ~Nanda

Re: Milwaukee's only CF dealer, Thanks to
A quick note to share how delighted my wife and I have been with our Northshore Wheels experience... We drove up to Milwaukee from Chicago a couple weeks ago, attracted by NSW's large selection of CFs available for test rides. Jeff at Northshore was very accommodating as we sorted through which bike was right for each of us -- an aqua Street and a yellow Fusion (both gorgeous!)-- and which accessories we'd ask him to install. He kept us posted every step of the way as parts were ordered and bikes were built up. And (he may kill me for saying this part) he personally delivered them to us yesterday in Chicago! Thanks to Jeff and Northshore Wheels for providing a great CF buying experience. Rick P.S. We would never have known about NSW if Jeff hadn't put his post in this forum. It seems like RANS could come up with a way of highlighting on their web site or crankforward.com which dealers currently stock CFs. Maybe even profile a "dealer of the month" or something. That would let shoppers know where to look and might even encourage some of the late adopters to jump on board. Jeff seems to me to have the makings of a "Nanda of the North." And I'll bet more are out there. |

Re: Milwaukee's only CF dealer
I picked up a Cruz from Jeff today. This was my second visit there. The first time I test rode one and asked about a million questions. Jeff was very helpful and very patient. I was still a bit hesitant to buy the bike. Jeff gave me a very liberal return and / or exchange policy. He couldn't install my rear rack, as he needs a adapter bracket because of the disc brake. He told me that he would deliver and install the bracket and rack when it came in and I was sure that I was keeping the bike. That will be a 30 mile one way trip for him. Unreal!! I'm sure Jeff will be announcing his new and better store location soon. Gotta love the guys service..... The other Jeff |
