SOLD: Miele Road Bike – Red – $300

SOLD as of August 2010

This red Miele has fantastic components on a top notch frame:

  • Ishiwata 022 cro-mo quadruple butted tubes (including stays and forks)
  • Shimano indexed downtube shifters
  • All alloy parts
  • Clipless pedals

The top tube has a small dent in the side which is why we are offerring this bike for $300 instead of what it would normally fetch (likely $500). Please see photos.

Please note that this is a consignment sale and while it is fully tuned and functional, it is sold as-is.

Sizing:
Seat Tube: 58cm/23 inch (from centre of BB to top of top tube)

Back to regular hours!

We are back to our regular hours, thanks for your patience :-)

That being said, we are still very busy with repairs and are getting them done in the order they arrived. With only one person in the shop for all of last week and this week, things are moving a bit more slowly than usual.

As each repair is completed we call right away – but if your phone is unreliable or you do not have voicemail, we sometimes do not get through. In this case, plese feel free to contact us about the progress.  The best way to reach us is to send an email through the contact form and include your tag number and a description of the bike.

Thanks!

Art Crawl! Repair Backlog! BuB Pricing!

Three quick notes this morning:

1. Art Crawl is on tonight and Karen Suk is opening her June show. Come check out the show, grab some snacks (home made cookies while supplies last) and take a spin on a BUB.

2. We are booking a week for repairs right now so if you need a tune up or repair, I strongly recommend waiting until next week to bring your bike in. I’ll be working furiously over the weekend to catch up and am hoping to get things back down to a two or three day turnaround by next week.

3. BUB pricing. I will be extending the earlybird pricing for BUBs into June. There is also NO PST on BUBs through June 30. So if you are considering one, this month is the month to act – you’ll snag it for an after-tax price which is lower than the before-tax regular price. We are still waiting for racks, but should have them in a week or two.
