Coleman's Falls Church location has a couple closeout helmets that looked interesting. A Gibernau replica and a few Haydens and some other replicas whose riders I couldn't immediately place. Saw them when I was drooling over the Parkes lids. Marked down to 500 and change I think.

A couple years back, they had a pretty bad reputation for bad business ethics, including overcharging and shady techs. A couple of peeps apparently had their bikes stolen shortly after getting service there, although I think that was the Woodbridge location.

The new sales manager is a guy named Matt Ross, he's about my age and really turned **** around. I have bought two gear-bikes there and I have paid $1000 under MSRP for each, including the Raven R6 I bought at the height of the season.

The accessories guys are also really cool, I have never paid sticker price for anything I have bought there.

A lot of it is conditional on knowing people though. I got to know guys in both departments by just going in and sitting on bike/trying **** on, and I was nice enough to them that they were willing to work with me when I was ready to buy. A lot of people on DCSB.net bitch about the place, but I have to think it's because they don't know how to talk to salesmen.

My advice if you go in there:
1. Know your ****.
2. Introduce yourself.
3. Don't be a dick.

Basic rules for life, and I've found they go especially far there.

 

You forget to tell him you can also suck a mean dick Ross.
