Bent Gate in Golden

[pechelman]

Just dropped by there to get my Peips beacon upgraded to 4.0.
The whole crew was way cool.

No one really *knew* how to do the upgrade, one person had seen it done before, so they used me as a guinea pig to figure it out. Ended up not charging me and sent me on my way nice and happy....well, thats before the cute blonde who works there started throwing pennies at me.

Anyway, Im sure most folks are in the know, but go there when you need something. Good peeps. Theyve got future business coming from me the next time I need something.

that is all

Yeah Dobish, Jay, Steve and crew are pretty freaking awesome. I have bought both bikes and skis from them as well as mucho other gear. Good folks, great store...

The blonde is cute, but is about as deep as a kiddy pool

Anything deeper and you could prolly drown.

Seconded on Bent Gate - that place is awesome for the front range crowd. Up here, Heather at Wilderness Sports pretty much rules. Blonde and smart.

Blonde and smart.

Kind of like you

Yeah, last year after CO Ski & Golf mismounted my 1st AT rig (learned to never have an alpine shop mount AT bindings), I took it over to Bent Gate, and talked with their techs...gave me some good info. After insisting on a new ski from CSG, I had them mount the new boards...works great.

Have done bidness with several different people from Bent Gate... all have been awesome. Highly recommended.

Bought my new Atomics there last month. I really enjoyed my shopping experience with them.

On the Colorado Ski and Golf side, I have had 2 pairs of skis tuned at the SW plaza store, both times, major portions of the edges were not even touched by the ski tech, or shall I say machine they ran them through before placing in the done rack. Simply pathetic IMO.

yo pechelman... i was talking to you in the shop today (i was the guy you first talked to.....) definately glad we figured that shit out.... sometimes I feel like it would be a good idea to work more than one day a week... anway, thanks for the props man... as it turns out, we had a couple of local maggots in the shop today. I will say, Rontele is probably one of our best customers....

[telepariah]

Uh... you need some more customers.

ah cool

someone walked in the front door when jimmy was helping me out and when he asked what "that" was, pointing to my beacon, I figured the "its a studfinder" comment would have brought you guys out from hiding.

anyway, good to meet ya!

[Dobish]

i didn't even hear the studfinder comment.... if I did, I probably would have made some kind of comment....

[Rontele]

Uh... you need some more customers.

Not if you saw my latest credit card statement

Bent Gate rules. Except for that closed on Saturday thing threw me off the first time I tried going there on a Saturday, but now that I know... I got my first pair of climbing shoes from Bent Gate when they were in that tiny place accross the street from where they are now. Staff is much friendlier and more helpful than most other shops.

[Greguar]

BIG props to Bent Gate, they always do a quality job!

[Ireallyliketoski2]

Why aren't they open on Saturdays? Do they want to ensure that their shop employees get to experience that awesome Saturday ski traffic?

I've been told the owner is Jewish, thus Saturday is the day off. Makes sense.
