    Thanks to Derek @ Bear Valley Bikes. I stopped by Saturday and even though they were busy, he still sold me a cassette & brake pads at a fair price AND installed them under 20 minutes. He even trued my rear wheel and fixed a couple drag issues without my even asking.

    The resulting shred of Exploration Trail the next morning was soooo much faster. Worth every penny. Thanks! =)

    I have to agree!!! I broke a spoke on the first run this friday. He had me back on the lift in no time. Thanks again and I love the shop shirt I bought.

    Yeah, I'll swing by and give him my money when I'm in his area even if it's just for GU or a mag.

    Yes friendly service when I have been up there, and fair prices. Easy shop to stroll into and feel comfortable.
