When our advertising runs amuck

It so happens that even the best laid plans sometimes go awry. Every month we offer a coupon of some type in the “Inside Arden” a local news rag, for those who like to save a little on a standard tune or other accessory provided by our little shop. However, for the August issue, we thought we would offer some great deals on some of our bikes instead of our regular coupon and expanded our ad into the “Inside East Sac” and the “Inside the City” news rags, to pass the deals on to others in the area. The problem is that we have been so enthusiastic with our sale prices on the bikes we featured, that we may be all SOLD OUT of the bikes we placed in the ads. Not good!

Orbea Orca SFR
So here is some of the content of the ads that we placed in the August issues, I unfortunately cannot divulge all the prices but believe me, if you’re looking for an full carbon Orbea Orca SFR, that is loaded with SRAM components,
Orbea Onix T-105

 or an Orbea Onix T-105 with Shimano 105, it is worth it to stop by the store and see these prices, you will not find any prices lower on these fast and agile bikes than what we are offering them at. Bring in your kit, shoes and pedals and take one out for a ride and see why Orbea is loved by the Tour D’ France.
Breezer Liberty

Commute to work on a Breezer Liberty, and at $699.99 it will pay for itself in no time. These bikes are loaded for the commuter in mind and the Liberty will let you commute in style with 700c wheels, Shimano components, and a Dynamo hub that will light your Busch & Miller Lumotec Headlight and Taillight. It also has reinforced Polycarbonate Fenders and a Rear rack to carry your bags on your bike, and keep them off you back. We have 3 left and a good size selection. Test ride a liberty today and while you’re here, also see our great selection of commuter bags by Arkle, the leader in bag design.
Absolute 4.0

We also have Fuji Crosstown 2.0’s and Absolute 4.0’s now at $349.99. Great utility bikes for those who want to stay on a budget and get a fantastic deal. These bikes have wide 700c tires and wheels, medium rise handlebars, Adjustable stems (gives you more of a upright riding position), and Shimano Revo shifters. The Crosstown has a suspension fork and spring loaded seat-post and comes in either a step-through or low toptube frame, the Absolute is a more performance orientated frame with adjustability for the comfort of the rider in mind.
Crosstown 2.0
We also miss our monthly service coupon so here it is, just print it, clip it and bring it in.
