Riding road and streets for about 15 years. After a few years in an office I busted out to live the dream of being a full time bike mech. Currently at a high-end road LBS in Toronto. Love vintage steel frames and can't stand reflectors or pie plates!

I'm a bike mechanic by trade so rest assured that this bike is well cared for! Check out my insta for examples of my work (@velomanic_state_of_mind). Clocks in at about 28.5lbs, with pedals, racks, and fenders. Feels like riding a couch and a tank at the same time! Perfect for commuting or around the world adventures!
I LOVE this bike and want to see it go to a good home. LOWBALLERS WILL BE IGNORED!
