Pinkbike Poll: How Often Would You Ride An eMTB vs a 'Regular' Mountain Bike?
I really don’t understand why people have to wait till they are 60 or injured to get an emtb. If you know how to use them properly you can get a really hard workout as you are still riding to your full potential. I ride my emtb 90% of the time. When I want to go easy I grab my gravel bike or my mtb for a change of pace.

Giant OCR-C1
$900 CADI’m selling my husband’s carbon road bike, sized medium (46.5 cm compact frame). Very clean with no scratches.
Full Ultegra drivetrain and brakes. Mavic Ksyzium Elite rims mated with Mavic hubs. FSA carbon cranks and bars. Triple chainring. Pedals and seat bag not included. The bike is ready to go.
The bike has been well-maintained and has low kilometres on it as he never really got into road riding preferring his mountain bike instead. The Giants’ OCR Carbon frames came in highly rated.
Thanks for looking.

Cannondale EVO
$1999 CADI'm selling my full carbon road bike in size small (48cm). I am 5'4" and this bike fits me perfectly. Full Ultegra front and rear derailleurs and brake/levers. Cannondale SI Hollow cranks mated to a double chain-ring (50/32T). FSA wheels.
It has been meticously maintained. There are a few surface scratches from road debris kicking up otherwise the bike is clean. The left brake hood has a small rip (happened when I changed the bar tape) but it does not affect the system or comfort.
You won't find a cleaner, well maintained bike out there. I'm only selling it because I ride my mountain bike more and this one isn't getting used as much as it should be. It’s super light and fairly stiff.
Thanks for looking and please feel free to contact me. Price is firm. Located in North Vancouver.

Intense UZZI SLX
$1200 CADSelling my Uzzi. It’s period complete with SRAM 9.0, Mavic rims, Hayes brakes, Race Face cranks, Onyx hubs and a Nicolas Vouilloz seat. The aluminum frame is mounted to a Fifth Element rear shock and Marzocchi Super T fork.
The bars, stem and tires are recent as I decided to take the bike to Whistler Bike Park a few summers ago for a couple of days for the fun of it. If you are interested I will throw in the original Easton 50 Monkey Wrench bars. I also serviced the fork at this time.
The bike is clean and needs no TLC. Just a good wash. Always maintained. There are a few cosmetic scratches in the usual places because we didn’t have wraps back in the day. All decals in great shape on frame. There is residue left over from a sticker. I just haven’t put in the elbow grease to remove it (see down tube). One fork leg a bit scratched up.
This would make a great collectors bike or, great for a beginner shredder. Bike set up for a 125lb rider.
Thanks for looking and feel free to contact me with questions.

NORCO Threshold Single Speed
$1100 CADI am, sadly, selling my Norco Threshold, size small (50.5cm). I don't want to but I bought another mountain bike and my husband doesn't believe in N+1. Bugger.
This bike is FAST and stiff. It is by far the fastest accelerating bike I have ever owned. It is amazingly simple and rides smoothly.
I rode it for one season...mostly for commuting with the occasional gravel ride. It has been unused for the past year. It is in excellent shape mechanically as well as physically. There are a few cosmetic scratches on the fork and seat stay (see photos) most likely from gravel getting kicked up as well, a bit of wear from my shoes on the crank arms. Otherwise, the bike is super clean and mechanically sound. Overall, I would rate the bike a 4.5 out of 5.
Includes both front and rear fenders. Does not include pedals.
Thanks for looking and PM me if you have any questions.
Cheers,
Cecile
