performance brick and mortar adieu?
Many of the performance brick and mortar locations are going bye bye. If you are fortunate enough(??) to live near one (US), you might stock up on useful consumables. Over leveraged from the sound of the type on the demise. They didn't mention the e commerce side of things- likely to continue?
Regards, Pat |

I always used to use them for my consumables..patch kits, tubes (not so much 27" tyres, had to search far and wide to get an interesting varitey), shifter/brake cables, straddle wires (what *is* the proper name for those?) and the like. Oh well, I guess eBay will continue to be my friend. I still remember a pair of 27" Hutchinson tires (both spelling supported here) I once had...never found another set. Those were nice.

Anyway, Pureheart in Aptos There is still time to get as many patches and tubes as you could ever need.. From the bankruptcy docket: The Auction for the Assets will commence on January 15, 2019 at 10:00 a.m. (ET) at the Durham Convention Center, Junior Ballroom A, 301 West Morgan St.., Durham, NC. The Convention Center is adjacent to the Durham Marriott City Center, 201 Foster St., Durham, NC. Only Qualified Bidders, the Debtors and the Consultation Parties will be permitted to attend or participate in the Auction. Qualified Bidders may participate telephonically with the consent of the Debtors and the Consultation Parties. The Bankruptcy Court will conduct a hearing (the "Sale Hearing") to consider the proposed Sales on January 22, 2019 at 11:00 a.m. (ET), in Courtroom #1, U.S. Bankruptcy Court, 101 S. Edgeworth St., Greensboro, NC. Maybe we can get the NG to put together some cash and make a bid for Nashbar. We can change it back to Bike Warehouse and recreate the '70s-'80s catalog offerings. http://bulgier.net/pics/bike/Catalogs/BikeWarehouse-80/ Sell Bob Jacksons! http://www.bobjacksoncycles.co.uk/pr...he-peg-frames/ Suntour Cyclones for everyone! -- Jay Beattie. |

I'm in!!! -- - Frank Krygowski By the way (cut and pasted from docket, excuse formatting): Advanced Sports Enterprises, Inc. and certain of its affiliates, as debtors and debtors in possession (collectively, the "Debtors") conducted the Auction of certain real and personal property and other related interests (the "Assets") pursuant to the "Bidding Procedures Order" (Doc. 205) on Wednesday, January 16, 2019, commencing at 10:00 a.m. (ET). At the conclusion of the Auction, the Debtors designated HTM USA HOLDINGS, INC.2 (the “Buyer”) as the successful bidder for the Assets. Attached are copies of (i) the Buyer’s Asset Purchase Agreement, and (ii) the proposed Sale Approval Order. Upon designation by the Buyers of the Assumed Contracts, the Debtors will promptly notify all counterparties to the Assumed Contracts (the “Assumption Notice”) and provide copies of the Adequate Assurance Information received from the Buyer. HTM Holdings owned Head among other sporting goods companies. I don't know if they were a creditor. We'll see what happens to the assets. -- Jay Beattie. |

Well, according to the inflation calculator, that's $57.35 in 2017 dollars.. Hmmmm. We can beat that! Get some Alibaba $1 tail lights and put them in cut-off beer cans or little plastic pots with with belt attachments and amber trailer light lenses. Sell them to the hard-core retro crowd -- the guys who are buying up all the handlebar bags. We'll be hundredaires! -- Jay Beattie. |

They had a really great selection then. Especially for tourists. I have about everything but the saddlebags left. Don't know what the hell I'm going to do with things like stoves and tents big enough to bring your bike into. Ground clothes etc. The stove is a two burner kerosene stove. You have to preheat it with some alcohol before it will light but it burns hotter than natural gas. I keep coming across all of this crap in the garage that I can't remember. I had this large plastic milk delivery case filled to the top with tubulars.. I only used those for about a year and the shop owner I used gave me a lot after he stopped sponsoring a team. I wish I had had him build me a bike. He was a really good frame maker. |
