Hey from Paris!
 
Hello all,

I am new to the forms and a new arrival here in Paris (originally from Canada). Initially I am looking for a few tips on buying second hand bikes and also hoping to learn a bit more about bike repair and customization.

:) !

Cheers,

Sam

Vintage French bikes with their differences of some components and threading make a 'fine' learning experience. But those bikes date to the early 80's and older.

Welcome to Bike Forums.

Enjoy Paris.

Welcome parisian neighbour ! I am also in Paris (12th arrondissement), just bought a small Dahon K3 (see my post https://www.bikeforums.net/folding-b...-dahon-k3.html in the folding bicycles subforum ) and hope to learn more about bicycles in this forum : how to take care of them, which accessories are interesting, etc :)

Welcome Sam. If the Giro and Le Tour are actually cancelled, you may be able to get a good deal on a pro tour bike at a good price. This is not really a joke.
