The bike store sounds a lot like my local one, which I refuse to spend money in. Their attitude is one of, "you did not buy your bike here, we will not help you, only tell you our beliefs". I found a lovely bike shop about 45 minuites away, not close, but wonderful.
Ignore what the owner says, he sounds like a jerk.

don't let him spoil it for you
I can't begin to tell you how many people told me what an idiot I was for buying my custom bike. I'll admit to being really nervous and questioning my decision after I had made it. Then she arrived. The finest bike I've ever thrown my leg over. You did the research and you bought what was right for you. This guy is upset that you didn't buy from him. Some people will just try to spoil it. Haven't you ever been to a new hairdresser and they say, "My word, poor dear. Who has been doing this to you?" They just want you to feel like they can fix you and everyone else is the enemy. Ride those wheels girl. You're gonna sweat it until they arrive. But they'll be great. stacie
