Just got into mountain biking and was looking for new grips and ski bar ends.  I like shopping on amazon.com, but wanted to \"handle\" them before I purchased.\n\nI went to Sports Authority and Dicks but did not carry the brands that I wanted:\n\n- Bontrager\n- Ergon\n\nThey had both of them there!  Not only that, but their prices rivaled those that were online.  I didn't have to wait for shipping and with tax it came out to a fair price.  My friend that came with me is more of an expert in bikes and he was amazed at the prices as well.  He did look at some other items he bought at another bike store in town and saw that their prices were better.\n\nThe shop was nice and clean, the people for the most part say \"hi\" to you and ask if you need help.\n\nI'm sure I'll be back here soon.
