Can you explain why a shop hurting for sales would swap to what the customer wants? I thought that was customer service. Also please explain how that's not supporting your local bike shop. He didn't buy the 105 levers online. Because of the shop's service,we wil also buy the clipless pedals from him in a month's time. The shop was kind enough to lend flat pedals in the interim until my nephew decides what he wants. Again this is both customer service and supporting the LBS.
