BSS Garage Sale - This Weekend
I'm not going to put this on the calendar because there's already so much awesome going on this weekend that anything more would make the universe implode, but if you're downtown this weekend YOU NEED TO GO TO THIS:
Bicycle Sport Shop is trying to clean out their inventory and is having a HUGE sale. Friday - Sunday, with up to 90% off for some things. Probably roadie arm warmers or something else equally useless. Still, check it out and get a deal on that weird new-old-stock part you never knew you always needed.
... it was not. The stuff for sale was very varied, and the prices were too -- some stuff was like 10% off, and some stuff was 97% off (was $30, now $1.) 50% off was more typical. Almost everything is brand new and in perfect condition.
Lots of hubs, rims, cassettes, derailers, handlebars, brakes, saddles, etc.
I did not see any of those arm warmers you were worried about, however, but I didn't really check out the roadie-wear, so you may still have a chance ...
The best time to go would have been right when they started -- and apparently they were mobbed -- but there's still quite a bit of stuff left. I'll bet it doesn't last through the weekend, however.
They got hammered pretty early, from what I heard. I made it down over lunch and picked up a bunch of goodies. Thompson setback seatpost for $35, Shimano wheelset for $50, SRAM X-7 shifters and rear derailer for $40. Not too bad.
They still had some arm warmers, but I left them for someone more in need than I. One of those benefits of coming from the frozen tundra that is northern Ohio is that besides having to level off the antifreeze at the start of the cold season I weather the weather remarkably well.
