I don't know that I'd trust a cycling supplier - even with 20 years of service - that refers to our sport as "biking"

I also like biketiresdirect. And bikewagon. Amazon has lots of good suppliers, though I recently had a bad experience with Larry's Bicycles in Philadelphia.

Does anyone have more information on the question, Niagara showing "out of stock" on everything on the site?
I have ordered from them before, and it was satisfactory since I just assume before I do that it's going to take awhile, but I wouldn't risk it with the site looking like that.

Niagara Cycle's website has been down for a couple of days now. Odd for an online retailer to be down for so long. Anybody know what is going on?
I am hopeful that they are creating a better website. With more realistic "in-stock" information and better filters.

Not optimistic I had been watching the website for months trying to get some cheap inner tubes. Store hours now show open one (1) day a week. I think they might be open just to clear out local pick up orders and back orders......

When everything in my cart came up as 'out of stock' during checkout, I realized I'de have to find an alternative source for pieces parts, i.e. axles, bearings, tires... I went with JensenUSA that seems to have comparable stock. Huskybicycles site also looks promising.

honestly...with a frontpage photo of the owners and their cat...i would surprised if they WEREN'T crazy LBS owners. they're probably doing a "if a lot of people queue for something, let's buy it" sorta deal.
