I was stretching the legs a bit yesterday and rode up on a guy on a carbon bike. I saw a red Serotta S on the downtube and it was a Mevici. We chatted for a bit and rode along for 15-20 minutes talking about bikes. He said one of the LBS talked him into it several years ago and he's been cured of bike lust.
It's rare to see a Serotta around these parts, but even rarer to see a Mevici.
Fun day.
PS - He had never heard of Kelly Bedford :confused:

No, more of the latest S-works Venge and Madones! Consumers, not connoisseurs - that's the Dallas style.

But no Serotta dealers in recent history - not in my 7 years here. Was Richardson Bike Mart a Serotta dealer in the past?

Yes it was. I own a Serotta year 2000 top 20 dealer baseball cap.

Yep. RBM.
As a matter of fact, when I was getting fit for my Bedford, Kelly suggested I go find someone at RBM to do it. He remembered them well and liked working with them.
