May 31, 2023Spawn Savage 1.0 20"
$450 CADXS 2017(-ish) Spawn Savage 1.0 Pink
This is my daughter's beloved "Pinkachoo". She has only had it 9 months, but in that time she has progressed to become a confident rider who now asks to go biking instead of complaining/whining about a biking trip - the transition has been remarkable and I credit this bike with the MTBer she has become. The only thing that changed from her previous 20" was disk brakes, a frame that was 2.5kg lighter and the superpower of pink. The acquisition of this bike allowed her to do Cumberland's Sobo no Michi climb and Vanilla network descent and the entire climb at Tzouhalem with a Double D descent unassisted. With that progression has come a grow spurt and the need for a larger bike.
The paint job has obviously seen better days, but attests to the unknown number of children who have learned on this frame, which is bombproof. The mechanical components are in excellent working order and it has recently been seen and adjusted at the LBS to be prepared for my daughter to attend after school riding group at Hartland.
The upgrades to this bike when we acquired it include a Shimano shifter and derailleur, new chain, and new brake cables, as well as brand new DHF & DHR II tires as of last week that have only been used a couple of times (the Vee Crowns it came with, which are 60% worn, are included); there is also an unused spare tube for that day things look flat.
Brakes - Tektro mechanical disc
Drivetrain - Shimano 7 speed Altus shifter and derailleur
Looking for local sale but there is a potential the bike can be brought over to the mainland Greater Vancouver area.
Thanks for looking - and if you have any questions send me a message and I should get back to you within 24hrs.

Sep 26, 2022Norrøna Fjørå flex1 shorts. XL Men’s
$60 CADNorrøna Fjørå flex1 shorts. XL Blue
Worn a half dozen times - like new without the tags.
Fits great on a 36” waist but ample room to cinch to a 34 or accommodate a 38
The main fabric is a softshell fabric, and has excellent movement, durability, windproofness, high breathability, and effective moisture transportation.
Has a Custom-Fit Waist system, two hand pockets, a thigh pocket, mesh-lined front venting with a two-way zipper, and a silicon grip in the waistband.
The shorts have a regular fit with an under the knee cut, and articulated legs and a higher waist for extra protection. The shorts are compatible with knee protection.
These classic shorts are made for single-track mountain biking but work great for general outdoor activities such as trekking or mountaineering.
Selling because I have too many shorts and a growing preference for pants.
