I usually go with jensonusa.com or Performancebike.com. I have also used Cambriabike, Supergo, and Pricepoint a few times in the past. I pretty much go to the one with the best price out of these. I use jensonusa the most now, but their selection is sometimes small on certain things. I have found that the prices on the stuff they do have is great though. Another one I have heard of is bikeworld.com, but haven't been impressed by the prices.

Although not all bike parts are available, Mountain Equipment Coop is very good. Shipping time is excellent (I get mine the next day). They also have several stores throughout Canada and on-line at

I really like Branford Bike. They are very helpful and their communication is fast and thorough, which is really lacking at some online places.

Check out the Internet's version of a local bike shop. where you can get to know the owner and he gives out free advice like it's halloween candy.
