I got my Salsa frame from them. Dave was great to work with and John builds some mean wheels.

Nice. They have got some sweet Mavericks on mega huge blowout sale pricing. Three or so left I believe as of 7/12/09.

I've personally had one good and one bad experience at Banning's.

The first time over there they were great and very helpful... they answered all my questions and it was an overall really good experience. The second time I went over there I ordered bushings and the bolts for my rear shock which they said they'd get in a week. I called a week later, no luck. The week after that, the same thing and they said they'd call me when they got it in. It's been over a month now and I never got a call

I stopped by Bannings for the first time and was completely impressed.

1. Banning walked me through all the current tech and possible components for a road bike
2. I was thinking about buying a used road bike (Torelli) and asked for his opinions on it. He gave me REALLY vital insight (gen 1 versus gen 2 distinctions) that basically was a make or break issue.
3. He offered to take a look at the bike for me if I brought it into the store.
4. He even offered me a beer while checking it over (since they were closing)

Great shop, amazing service, highly recommended for roadies.
