By hit the floor I don’t mean we dropped them or anything but you probably knew that. While the list below outlines the mix of styles of bikes we’ve just received, my fav is the Scale Expert 29 Full Carbon uber light dream machine that is less than 3 grand.  If you told me 5 years ago that full carbon mountain bikes would be viable and relatively affordable I would have said you were nuts. And I would have been wrong.

Heres a list of the styles of bikes:

• Scale 29″ hardtails
• Spark 29″ full suspension bike
• CR1 full carbon road bikes
• Speedster aluminum road bikes
• SUB sport utility bikes
• Sportster performance hybrid

After a generation at the Scott Street location in downtown Kitchener, we are on the move to a bigger, better location. The new location, at the corner of Borden and Nyberg is south of the current location with more parking and a single floor layout making it easier to service our customers. Below is a link to the K-W Record article about our new location.
