Does anyone know of any bicycle shops in Seoul that sell larger bikes? I'm currently looking for a new road bike and I ride 58-59cm frame. I know the Trek Store near Gangnam carries some larger bikes, but they're a bit overpriced there.

I'd love to know what you paid for the TREK. I've decided I will never bikes, camping gear, backpacks ever again in Korea. Everything is double what you would usually pay. Hell, you could take a ferry to Qingdao in China, buy a new trek decked out and come back for less than they charge you here. It's mad.
I think Koreans are funny.

Are you american?

I paid around 950k for the 6300....which retails for around 1250k in my home country.
