  This is a well stocked Bike Shop on the Jersey Shore.  I bought my 2007 Specialized Langster at The Peddler.  Most of the staff is friendly  and knowledgeable.  I usually drive by two other bike shops to browse The Peddler.  
  
  They are both a Specialized and Cannondale dealer but seem to prefer Cannondale.  They are also a Seven Dealer and will pretty much special order anything.
  
  They are also located in an Economic Redevelopment area so you can save on the taxes as well.
  
  The Peddler sponsors several teams and weekend rides often start in their parking lot.
  
  Not really sure why I did not give them 5 stars.  Probably because nothing is perfect.

  I bought a bike there a few years ago which was fine. But bought some aftermarket stuff which didn't come in for 9 months -- really?
  Recently my chain kept falling off. After reading online that it could be a number of things like a stretched chain, worn sprocket, etc., I decided not to mess with it and bring it to the pros.
  
  The guy who waited on me started by saying he didn't have any time. When I told him I understood and would leave it, he told me he'd look at it. Then he said that all that needed to be done was to pull the back wheel back a bit. He talked to me like I was stupid and he was so smart. Well, smart bike guy, the chain continued to fall off and I took the bike to Bike Haven in Fair Haven, NJ. They were friendly (not in that trying to sell you something way) and they put a lot of work into my bike and only charged me $15! I know where I'm going next time I need a new bike and it ain't the Peddler.
