Bike shop in Nashville, Tn

[Abbey44]

I'm looking for a bike shop in Nashville that I can ship my bike to and ask them to assemble it for me.  I'm planning on riding the Natchez Trace and Nashville will be my starting point.  Any suggestions?

In rough order:
Suggest you check out the Harpeth Valley bike club site for local shops.  Maybe someone you contact there can give you a firm recommendation.

I stopped by Bicycle Pedlar (sp?) back when they were Allanti.  (They were advertising Gunnar bikes, and I was thinking about getting a custom tourer.)  I don't get up there often, so I was surprised when they had moved a year or so later.  Staff was interested, pleasant, and seemed knowledgeable during our chat, but I didn't actually buy anything, so I can't give you a firm recommendation.

Also, REI has a store in Brentwood.  The bike department wrenches usually have something to do, for whatever that's worth.

Do a google search for "Nashville bike shops."

Trace bikes is right by (like you can see the road from the shop) the N end of the Natchez trace
