Ok to catch up and answer some questions..

Shiv- Trek and Gary Fisher are one in the same. Bontrager is also a trek product- ie; non trek shops cannot get them.

As for the sizing.... ARGGHHH to shops that base their sizing on standover height- NEVER do that!!!!!! With the new geometry that most road bikes have these days you really need to look at effective top tube, and overall reach.
To give you an idea, go on wrench science dot com and go into their fit gallery. You have to make an acct, but it's easy and free. Then do a fit on yourself- have someone help measure you. Plug in the numbers and then look at the overall reach and related numbers. Those are really helpful in finding the right sized bike for you.

Ok and TX....
Yes a lot of shops are streamlining what they carry. We were a Bianchi dealer last year, but this year they wanted a 25k commitment. We don't have the market, so we had to drop them. The larger companies also tend to have much more favorable credit terms, while the small guys are all COD or credit card up front. So for shops that are cash poor (like ours) it makes it hard to justify carrying the brand. Also it is a very tough environment for the small independent bike dealers. Margins are low on bikes, and getting lower on accessories, so it is very tough to be profitable. Most of the saavy owners are narrowing their focus and then going deep. So you will prolly see less "stuff" in your lbs. We just can't afford to have so much "fluff" laying around taking up space and $$. We are constantly evaluating our inventory mix, and are dropping "skus" (products) that are sitting too long.
So anyway, that is why you are seeing a shift in your lbs. They are kind of forced to in order to stay alive.
