Apparently it's due to Eric retiring.
I've moved to LA not too long ago and Eric was the shop i went to for everything i needed or didn't have time to work on my bike. He's nothing but helpful and a really nice guy, so when i went back to pick up my forks and shock for my TM and he told me that he's closing shop, i really was dumbstruck for a second. I'll be sad to see him go and finding a new shop that will be as awesome as his will be really hard. Hopefully i'll have enough cash to grab some of his awesome stuff that he has around the shop, though!
