    I am short, or I should say my inseam is so when I got a new bike when I started seriously riding 5 years ago I started having problems cause I was not fitted right.
    Then when we started looking for a higher end bike, no one had one that would fit me. I had to look else where and ended up with a frame from ebay!
    I just wish my lbs had had one 14 inch frame I could have tried. They kept saying they could order one but I had to give a deposite. Ahhh how do I know it is going to work? And they wanted a $600. 00 deposite for it. Nope ,no way! Lucky for me my husband really did he's research and worked it for me. Hey have him work at your store!
    Good luck!
    Blessed are the flexible, for they shall not be bent out of shape.

    - Women's bib shorts: STOCK THEM!!!!

    - Carry a wide variety of saddles (men/women/unisex), and try to provide customers with a return/exchange program for trying them out.

    - A wide price range of bikes: while it's a great place for racers, the shop that sponsors my team is like the luxury car dealership of bike shops, so I end up hardly ever recommending it to newbies who don't want to spend their life savings on a carbon fiber speed machine.'

    This is all I can think of for now.

    P.S. Bike mechanics (male and/or female) that are easy on the eyes help, too
    Because not every fast cyclist is a toothpick...
