“EVERYDAY IS RIDE DAY.”

Spring is here!

A reminder to new mountain bikers: don’t be a wanker, stay off the single track trails when they are wet to avoid wrecking the trails with ruts from your bike. If riding maintained trails, check their website or Facebook page to see if trails are “open”.

SALES: It’s time to ride and we can help with everything from new bike sales of Kona, Linus, Marin, Reid, Seven Peaks, Slane, Stolen, Sunday & Tern bicycles. We also sell used bikes. These have been traded in or sold to us for one reason or another. All used bikes have been tuned. We will tell you what we know of the bikes history and what parts have been replaced by us, if any, during the tune-up.

SERVICE: Pleased to say two of our mechanics are certified by Winterbourne Bicycle Institute. It is one of a handful of bicycle mechanic schools in Canada. When I was there, other students were from around Ontario, Nova Scotia and Michigan. Another one of our mechanics learned the trade in Hamilton at Freewheel and Pierik’s.

“That’s nice … when will I get my bike back?” We’re booked with appointments for about 7 – 10 days out right now and taking reservations. If you have a flat, we can usually take care of that quickly if you drop by but anything else will take a little longer and an appointment.

We are moving fast now that Andrew is back with others filling in when possible. This will help us get your bike back to you as quickly as possible. Our goal is “If it’s in Wednesday and doesn’t need parts that we don’t have, you’ll have it by Friday”. Not there yet but soon …

PARTS: We carry new parts from D’Amour, Easton, Fox, Race Face and Marzocchi parts.  We also have a wide selection of Vintage parts to help with your older bicycle’s repairs.

TOURS, RENTALS & INFORMATION: We offer free neighbourhood tours, monthly “Light The Night” rides as well as other themed rides. Rentals will be available soon.  We can also suggest places to ride on your next road trip.

This is one the main reasons there is no better place to get information about your bike and where to ride than your local bike shop. Where ever it is, they know the area and they know how to get the best out of your bike. You can test ride various bikes to find the one that is perfect for you. You can usually get first hand experience with gear and accessories. Your local bike shop is usually a champion for better bicycling infrastructure.

Where ever you are, please support local independent bicycle shops.
