Just did a test purchase and it looks like they have awesome shipping prices. It is great to finally have a bigger and quality online bike store here in Canada. Now I just can't wait for a bigger variety of stock.

go on the website. pricepoint.com and chainreactioncycles.com have a much better selection and much better deals. calgarycyclesonline.com actually sucks!

pake, the whole point is that the store is Canadian.

pake (May 28, 2009 at 7:06)

are you going to pay more for a product just to buy it from a canadian store? plus, the selection isn't that great anyways so why not just go somewhere else that has it for a better price, let alone even has it.

The thing is that shipping will me much less expensive. I wanted to order tires that were on sale from JensonUSA but with a 24USD shipping cost I don't really save any money.

Yeah, the prices on the USA sites might be great, but toss in the shipping cost, possible customs fees and currency conversion and those savings pretty much go out the window.

pake (May 28, 2009 at 18:55)

i did the currency conversion, Canadian dollars are almost equal now. but im sure you know that anyways since the economy sucks so bad.

J.P he is canadian so maybe it benefits him more then you think?

kenny-m (May 28, 2009 at 20:36)

ya, us canadians really get tagged with shipping on things like forks, wheels, and worst of all, frames. its cool when you buy a bunch of stuff from the US that they can cram into a box and you have plenty of time to wait for the stuff.

that blows when you guys aren't that far, just inter-national.

~70¢ USD buys a Canadian Dollar right now.

domster (May 29, 2009 at 4:38)

That would be 90¢ USB buys a Canadian dollar. ( www.xe.com)

In that case, my converter is severely broken

...PAKE; I just looked at the world cup boxxer on pricepoint, they have an '09 for 1600 USD, plus i'm gonna have that shipped through customs ($). Calgary cycle has an '09 WC for 999 CAD.

Am I missing something here? ...Don't think i need a converter to figure out which of those is a better deal?!?

pake (May 31, 2009 at 18:47)

yeah that's one item and it's a damn good price. but look at the rest of the site, it isn't a good deal, if they even have it in stock.

biketool (Jun 1, 2009 at 9:43)

Understood, hopefully the selection grows as the site is just new!!

hahahaa you actually get to keep the goats? i thought you only got the two goats for ten minutes at a time.....

hoshi (May 27, 2009 at 4:55)

don't know how much you guys earn in Canada but the Prices are pretty damn high if you ask me...

domster (May 27, 2009 at 6:36)

Remember that 1 euro = 1.55 Canadian dollar

11 0

nfiorito (May 27, 2009 at 6:54)

we run on the barter system. 2 goats (milking) for a wheelset is the going rate.

hoshi (May 27, 2009 at 12:20)

yeagh I now but even if you I calculate the euros to CAD the forks are cheaper than in Cananda... too bad i thought I could buy it oversee and would save some money -.-

baem (May 27, 2009 at 13:25)

949.99 can$ are 612€ - you won´t get a new 09 WC cheaper over here in europe

Nice to see a Canadian online retail site for bike parts. I just bought a new cassette and got it at a better price than any US or UK site that I searched.

kenny-m (May 28, 2009 at 16:47)

ya at least they are there. and if you need them to ship something overnight for a race, then they will be there for you, no doubt! holler
