Like some of you folks, I too, have mixed feelings. I will say that when I bought the shop that I have, the previous owner had some in stock. I chose not to continue that trend, as bikes were heavy, expensive and for rural areas simply not practical. But over the years, I'm sure they have become much better and cured some of the previous issues. But at least at this time, I don't see them becoming a part of the shop... who knows, maybe that will change down the line.
