Where in Chicago?
Pedal and Spoke in Aurora is a good shop.

Aurora is pretty far from Chicago if you're going to ask a seller to deliver a bike to the shop for shipping.

Yes, that's true. I called them, though, and they recommended a shop in Chicago that is reputable. The only hurdle left is to find a facilitator as the seller won't take Paypal.

I can probably connect with the seller is it's somewhere near that corridor.

Use Velosmith in Wilmette, just outside of the City.

K, we've settled (offline) that the bike is in the Oak Park area. Johnny Sprockets is in Lakeview and Andersonville, so would probably involve some schlepping. Any shops in the Oak Park/River Forest/Forest Park area people would recommend for shipping?

OK, now we know a location. Lickbike in Oak Park...seems to have a good rep over the years.
