Love: Customer service, enthusiasm, "velosophy", Jumbo wool, MUSA clothes, bags (pretty much all of 'em, though the new Trunksacks are pretty busy-looking; I'm sure I'll come around, though. I appear to have drunk the kool-aid.), suspenders, Nitto, Grip Kings, thick bike socks (if you were wondering who bought all of the XLs, it was me), Rivendell Reader, Atlantis (it'd be at the top of my list, except at this point it's aspirational not empirical), overall bike aesthetic, straps, wraps, GP's whimsical writing
Groan: Price (things available elsewhere are usually substantially cheaper elsewhere), out-of-stock-ness, GP's whimsical writing My first two groans are instrinsically at odds. It's a little like the classic complaint: "The food was terrible! And there was so little of it!"
