In case it hasn't been mentioned before, you can't go wrong dealing with @Flog00. Great dealing with him.

Still learning
@The Golden Boy lives up to his nickname, certainly a first class and generous guy!
Edit:
I forgot to mention @whatwolf is a great seller and a buyer. She must have clout too with USPS, it only took 3 days to ship a frame from Detroit to San Diego, parcel select!! Although USPS did mangle the box, thank goodness it was a Trek MTB made of kryptonite.

I'll just say that @oddjob2 was exceptionally great to deal with- he wasn't selling me something- he was helping me find the right parts for my bike- that's appreciated.
And I got a nice chainring from @whatwolf to go with those cranks!
Thanks to both of you!

Also- Just so it's in this thread- @rootboy worked with me on designing a saddlebag from a repurposed Army cargo satchel. His experience, his skills and his artistic sensibilities made a really great bag that's going to be a part of my cycling experience for a long, long time.

@wrk101 packs frames in a most appreciated OCD/anal retentive way. You won't be disappointed with what he has to offer.

Great transaction with robtown. He shipped the Paramount fast and packaged it well. I am very happy with everything.
