Don't just test ride at your LBS, check every BS you can reasonably get to. I looked for my MTB in three different states, rode 10's of different bikes before finding the perfect bike, which belonged to a shop guy. (I mean, he had the right size for me to test ride- but then I stuck with that frame and had it custom built by SpeedGoat, mailorder- a wonderful experience, BTW.)

And at that time, all the WSD MTB's I rode felt miniturized, like I was a bear on a tricycle, you know? So I was leery of WSD when I was looking for road bikes, but I got one, and it is absolutely perfect- feels "right," not small.
