hello RB
to Walleater
i too am a fake Canadian but i can almost fool the peeps into thinking im ginuwin.thanks to global warming my hometown can also claim to be on
warm side, its a far cry from the bitter memories of my younger days when it always seemed to be -10c or worse from november until june.
Your signature has a link to a realy nice FB page. it made me open my own FB for the first time in two years or what seems an eternity.
i found that tv show targeting bike thieves especially cool and it got me to watching YT videos on the same subject.

hows it going eh?
Rocky Mountains were always one of my favorite bikes. The one i most miss is the 17" blizzard in dark blue with sky blue rigid fork and U brake on the chainstays. I think that u brake was one of the first bikes i had where the brakes actually worked and stopped you.
As for kona they were a bike i have no expierence with... probably because i was always trying to get a stumpy.

hello and thanks for the welcome. A bit of advice plz donot be offended i dont mean any but you should post a new for sale thread,it is too difficult to keep track of the items you have and the ones that have been sold.
Took a look at your brodie sovereign.. if it was mine i would keep it the same colour as it currently is now.
Hello Highlandsflyer
this time i am going with the bikes i always wanted but couldnt afford BITD.
i found ebay and through ebay ive picked up a 96 or 97 18" litespeed ocoee frame and a 19"merlin from about 1993. The LS is now completed just need to put some grease in the headset and set the limitscrews on the mechs, decals and im done. The merlin is being converted to 7 sp XT and is now in the shop as i do not have the tool needed to remove a phil woods BB.When thats done i need to decide if im going to keep this bike and spend more money on getting it fixed or whether i should just retire it.
If i was to get another bike i think i would go with something like a pace or an orange. i never knew it until i found this site but you Brits have some some really nice bikes there in the UK.

Hi RockiMtn
hi your initials wouldnt happen to be PW? a few months ago i was trying to buy parts from a guy on the northern outskirts but in the end it wasnt to be schedules are just too busy. and just a reminder your GCBS thread is over 20 pages long. makes it tough for newbies like me to find the great gear you guys have.

i am in the west end of T.O near High Park and the sparse few times i do ride it is always there or along the lakeshore.Now that my 3 kids are all able to ride two wheelers i will take them this summer to finally see the Bruce trail or where You ride. Along the Don R. Tonight im going to take an exploratory ride to work to see if i could strat commuting to work on two wheels instead of being one of those cars with just one person in it
Talk to you all soon
Cheers

Hi Lord-fowl, you'll find quite a few people keep the same sale thread open and just keep editing the first post. Basically you just need to read the first post because as soon as something is sold it gets added to the sold list and the post is updated.
Oh and the Brodie will be staying exactly as it is, cheers

As raidan73… everything I have available and have sold is listed in the first post at the top of page one. As things are available or sold, I update that first original post. You don't need to look through 20+ pages of the thread.
And no, I'm not PW.
send me a PM and let me know what you're after and i'll see what i can help with. trail_head

Hi Peter,
I'm fairly accomplished as a mechanic and do services bikes. What's up with your Merlin's BB?
edit; I'm in East York
