Ha! I just ordered a rim, and initially found it on their site, at a good price. The listing didn't state if it was a 36h (which was what I needed). I called the phone number to verify and the person just answered "hello" without acknowledging that I had reached the bike store. I had to ask them if it was the Carson City bike store. I did get my question answered but the phone conversation left me unsettled. I ended up ordering this rim from Amazon for a couple of dollars more.
