Default Klein dealers in Colorado

Hi



Can any one recommend a good Klein dealer in Colorado, preferably near
Winter Park, Dillon, Aspen or Crested Butte. Need to change fork on a 99
Adroit and think it would be best done by some one who has worked a lot of
Kleins and has adapters so we can get a Marzocchi on it.

The Tune-Up in Gunnison is a Klein dealer -
970-641-0285). Good bunch of folks there. Be sure if you want them to do
something specific like this you give them plenty of notice to have the
right stuff in stock.

Absolute Bikes ( http://www.absolutebikes.com/home.html ) in Salida
is a Klein dealer. Also the best shop in terms of mechanics' expertise
I've ever worked with.

And you can see some really cool old bikes in there. They have a museum
collection of their own, but for a little while longer will be hosting
bikes from the Crested Butte Mountain Bike Hall of Fame (the HoF is moving
into a new building as I understand it).

(disclaimer: the folks at Absolute are friends of mine)

Splendid, we need a Klein specialist, as Elisabeth´s bike has a funky
integrated headset. She is a Klein-freak.

Unfortunately, Kleins are a bit difficult to work with. She will need some
kind of adapter bits to get a new fork on. Shops that cater to Klein-freaks
will know precisely what it is about. I will mail Absolute bikes and inquire
if they can do it.
