What a great gift. He's going to love it. I remembered I got a new bike for Christmas when I was 7 or 8. Of all the gifts I ever got for Christmas, the one that stands out the most is a bike.

The Trek Jet is a great bike, and while it costs more than a box-store bike, you can rest assured that it will be safe and sturdy and that the shop where you purchased it will be able to service it.
he's a very lucky boy! do you live in a climate where he'll get to try it out right away? or will he have to wait until the spring thaw?

Ahh love to hear that!
And as for the price, keep in mind that on bikes all shops work on about the same margin. Bikes are between 38-43% markup. Seeing as how a shop usually needs to make about a 41% margin just to keep the lights on, there's not much wiggle room there.
Not that you cared to hear all that, but I just wanted to let you know that you prolly got about the best deal you could. And freebies are always good.
Ride safe, ride hard, have fun!
