So I got a bike about a month ago . In fact I think it might ' ve been exactly a month ago . The thing was in the shop quite a bit since then , which is a bit annoying , but they finally got it to where the problems with it are more me not being totally in bike - shape yet ( like going up steep hills is MURDER . ) I wanted to get a recumbent bike , but they 're WAY the heck expensive , and only two places had decent ones and one of them was not really interested in , you know .

Question: Why was my bike in the shop for a while ?
Answer: I did not pay for the bike immediately .It took some time to find out what is wrong with the bike .I was more interested in a recumbent bike .None of the above choices .
