So ... I checked out two shops "known" for road bikes ...

One ... Fisher's Cyclery ... fair amount of Campagnolo, but no steel, and the I spoke with just didn't seem to know much about the road ...

Two ... Contender Bicycles ... parent shop of the Mi Duole racing club, I believe. Lots and lots and lots of high-end road bikes. All Shimano. All aluminium or carbon. No titanium (oddly), and definitely no lugged steel

I want to find a shop like the old Italian's in "Deux Secondes" ... high-end road, but without the attitude that newest is bestest.
