Nienkamper (360 King East), Lileo (55 Mill, building #35), Klaxon Howl (877 Queen West) and Uncle Otis (26 Bellair) are displaying the Oma and Opa styles, featuring classic frames, fenders and built-in lighting and locking components available on one-, three- and eight-speed models. Prices range from $875 to $1,350. "
i saw a few of the display models and thought they were mighty pricey. not a bad looking bike but damn $$$$. reminds me a lot of the kronans you see zipping around the city. all things being equal, i'd rather get a kronan.
on a separate note, does anyone know how to get into parts unknown?! the driveway is completely barred by a gate and a fence. a tried to search this thread (hahaha) for info but i keep getting server busy messages.
