slightly newcommer from quebec here!
so well here i am, I have posted a little bit in other sub forums but never presented myself.
i go by the screenname sunstealth (which come from anickname in highschool) my name is Mario and i am 23 from quebec Canada (im a french canadian but fluent in both french and english)
so im here to learn more than i already know on bike which is to say pretty minimal, just this winter decided to maintain my 2 mountain bikes by myself, they are not top quality and im not an expert but they do go well (much better than they were before) bought tools and im becoming quite good at bike mecanics (im used to car painting and mecanics as well as 2 strokes engine repair so im not that lost)
im also wanting to get back in shape since im feeling less and less fit over the last years with university and a technical advisor job at a car repair shop (desk job pretty much) so im not moving much
bought a road bike recently that i am completely rebuilding from the bare nake frame up to commute to school (a 80 kilometers trip back and forth to montreal daily)
so i now own 1 crappy bike 1 soso bike and 1 not bad bike (the good better and best will come one day lol) the collection is: a trax glacier bike (was a gift from my parents 8 years ago, really solid bike but heavy and crap front fork suspension, i class it crappy)
a supercycle hooligan classed as the soso bike
and now a nakamura Nomade road bike for the not bad bike
sorry bout the long post but it presents me and my bikes pretty well.
cheers, Mario!
