Unless you are going far north to get a dealer bike, your best bet is VaBeach. I got mine from Cycle World. Was able to work a pretty decent deal on the bike

if this is your first bike i would say to get a used one mostly because theres a huge chance you will drop it and it would suck to drop a brand new bike.

ive never got a bike from a dealer so i dunno about that tho
