Thanks to all the everyday cyclists who have supported us this year. It has been a pleasure looking after you and your bikes. We hope you have a happy Christmas and exciting New Year. We’ll be taking a little time off to prepare for 2010 -
Closing our Workshop Door at 5pm on Thursday 24th December 2009
&
reopening on Monday 4th January 2010.
If you’re still looking for a little stocking filler for the bicycle nut in your house , we’ve got a shop full of goodies and gift certificates if you can’t decide whether they’ll want black or brown leather bar tape!
Speaking of which, top of the list is the 2010 Northside Ladies Bicycle Calendar. For $20, you get a cool calendar of photos of northside women cyclists, and their bikes. Photographed at locations on the right side of the river, the calendar will look perfect in any home, or bike shed.
And while we’re looking forward to 2010, we just have to mention the exciting new gear soon to land the workshop.
Van MOOF bikes – 3 speeds, Brooks leather saddle, lightweight alloy frame with solar powered lights integrated into the top tube. That’s right, no more dead batteries, forgetting your lights or having them stolen! Simple and sensible really. Little wonder it comes from Holland and just picked up a top design award at the Eurobike show.
Also hot off the press from Holland is the 2010 range of Gazelles and Basil accessories. Two particularly exciting bikes in the new Gazelle range are the Chamonix Pure and the Innergy electric bike.
Not to be outdone, Surly have brought out a 26″ version of the Long Haul Trucker in all frame sizes and the Surly Pacer is available as a complete bike for those of you after something a little more racy, but with no carbon fibre to be seen.
And stay tuned for details of our 650b ‘Porteur’ bike. The frame, porteur rack, fluted fenders have arrived, just need to build some high polish rims and await the arrival of Grand Bois tyres……
