Online Canadian Bike stores
Or stores that list Canadian prices and shipping....anyone know any good ones? I live kind of far away from everything, and my LBS can't get everything in. And it's also nice to check stuff out online before I go into the shops so I have an idea. Besides, I need something to do when I can't sleep!!! Thanks

I'm surprised that one's not been asked before... There seem to be a fair number of Canadians on here.... and I'm not shocked in the least that the only reply was Maelstrom's

I visited www.bikeroom.com and the contact mailing address is in the US?
There's a deal on XT hubs and Rhino lite wheels for $133.
Is this is a good deal? I've heard lots of good things about Rhino Lite wheels.

Are you sure, their building is in Abbottsford. The owner Dave kicks serious ass. I do know they are affiliated with airbomb.com though. That might be the mixed address.
In cdn thats a good deal. I was considering buying a set myself.

That looks like a U.S. zip code for Washington state? Anyway, the phone number is B.C. and such. I just wondered...... any advise on the "wheels deal"?

I was actually implying that you're pretty knowledgeable.. and being Canadian I figured if anyone would know of any good Canadian online bike stores, it would be you. Either way, I do kinda agree that this wouldn't make a bad sticky topic.
