although, i'm sure there are a lot of mega nice peeps in many bike shops. I just feel like I would waste their time...
I went into Evans on The Cut (by Waterloo) to try out their Specialized for sizing (thought I could go through Cycle2Work scheme, but turns out my employers don't run it anymore). The guy in there was really helpful and didn't seem to mind in the least. I think I went on a Sunday afternoon when it was a bit quiet, so maybe that helped. Basically, they don't have to know you're not going to be their best customer ever ;)
