Then the bike shop boy comes over. He gives you a once over.

You know that look.

He then ushers you to the comfort bikes

Exact same thing happened to me. I was at a shop that's a Specialized dealer for a saddle - not my usual shops. While there, I wanted to see how Specialized clamps their seatposts on their carbon bikes. Because I had an issue with one of my three carbon bikes... shop kid points me towards their WSD aluminum bikes (not that there's anything wrong with that,... I have two of those too!)
