Now that I finally have a good bike and an old beater, what are some good online/web sources for parts, accessories, tubes & tires, etc? I've found several that look good, but one stands out(from what little I can see/find out)- Niagara Cycle Works.
Niagara Cycle Works has lots of stuff available on Amazon, or you can order directly from their website where they'll throw in free shipping for orders of $75 or more, & consistently seems to have the lowest or near lowest price, plus more choice than some others. They answered my emails within 24 hours, website easy to navigate with an absloute minimum of foofoo. And their choice of tires- especially in the 26x1 3/8 size for my ole Monkey Wards 3-sp beater- is excelent, with many choices at low prices.
Any reason to avoid ordering from them? I'd like a frame mount pump(Topeak Morphs in mid-hi $20's), plus a new-fangled bike "computer"(Niagara has the Planet Bike 9.0 for $15 right now!), maybe a new set of tubes & tires for the old beater(~$12 total), spare tube for the Trek(~$2), maybe a new saddle, a multi-tool would be cool, some other odds & ends- no problem getting that free shipping!
Are there others I should strongly consider? Nashbar & PerformanceBike look like good contenders, what about others? All info & input appreciated. Thanks
