Hi Andre, appreciate the reply, my intention is not to discredit your company, only bring to light what I feel is a shortcoming in your business model. I fully understand how difficult it must be for the shop to carry the various stock, hence my suggestion for an online direct to consumer store. Ultimately the problem is I am a private individual with very niche requirements. Will have a chat in private.

If only you could find and buy what you actually wanted and what they claim to sell. It is made to sound so simple in this article, the reality is you go to a bike shop to pay the premium for \"specific\" bicycle bearings and they never have what you are looking for and try sell you what they stock (which is usually a generic bearing which can be bought from a bearing supplier at 1/3rd the cost) or you sit trying to explain to the salesman with a long face what you actually want. Rush needs an online store where you can search for the bearing you need and not what the shop has in stock... but I also suppose they are not really interested in supporting the little guy.

Now that is an awesome looking rear end! Very nice design!

I enjoyed the marathon, route was definitely harder than last year. Like previously mentioned I think a lot of that had to do with the grass sections, suck a lot of energy out of the legs. But overall a great weekend.
