Extremely disappointed on my return to cycling. Front light had to be returned as the mount was an elastic band which would have broken quickly having to remove it and charge it frequently, also able to buy elsewhere a lot cheaper than $129. They had no lights available with removable rechargeable batteries and a fixed mount on handlebars. I needed new SPD shoes and they did not stock even one pair of wide fitting shoes which I got easily in another store. The saddle replacement was cheap and nasty and nearly crippled me with far too much pressure on the prostate area. Touring cyclists can spend all day in the saddle unlike most of Hadley's cyclists who are head down and bum up for a quick race. Handlebar stem replacement made the bike truly uncomfortable to ride and I had to remove that and replace it with the original. I am so disgusted that I won't even bother to take the product back, not worth the effort. The one star I gave on the review was for the replacement brake pads, they were OK. I also overheard them refusing to allow a customer to try a bike in the car park they wanted to buy. Absolutely disgraceful as other shops do not have this restriction. In fact I recently went into a car dealership and took a Porsche Boxster for a drive and they did not say you can't test drive the vehicle. I did buy the vehicle and I am sure it is worth a lot more than any one of Hadley's bikes and they trusted me as a prospective customer.
However I have learned a valuable lesson on where not to shop next time.
