1 - Jon is a no-nonsense store owner. Sometimes he can come off as something like the Soup Nazi of classic bicycles. If he doesn't want to sell you a bike because 'it's wrong for you!,' he won't. And he'll get perturbed that you're still pining over it.
2 - Jon is ESL and (I think) hard of hearing. So talk a little slower and more clearly and you'll both be happier. He's also, definitely, non-BS, so don't be a dick.
3 - Jon knows his bikes and vélo lore. He can really talk about all the little details and history of frame X and cycle champion Y. If you tell him what you want, and tell him how much you have to spend, he'll put together a really decent bike for you or tell you to take a hike. Either way, it'll be super clear as to exactly what you're getting from him. -

i have honestly never seen a store so packed full of crap in my life. old, new, useful, broken, but the guy knew where everything was. he's not going to chat you up or make you feel great for buying something, and i personally i thought that was a bonus. i was nice to him and he was nice to me. he was real and honest. he helped me find a u-lock and even negotiated a couple bucks with me. i'd go back to him if i needed anything else.
