Who usually assembles your new bike?

My local shop.
If I'm buying a frame only, I'll do the assembling. If I'm getting a complete from a shop I'll let them put it together.
If it comes in the mail I'll assemble it, if it's from a shop I'll have them put it together.
I'll assemble it if necessary, but if it's already built up I'm not going to complain.
I'm the only one allowed to work on my bikes.

i build all the bits that can be done with allen keys or a torque wrench. I've not bought a headset press or wheel truing/building stand for a once every few years job
