New bikes in from Opus Bike!

If you’re thinking about going electric next year, we might have the bike you need now! Opus’ Connect is simple, easy riding and lightweight. The Connect uses Shimano’s E-5000 STePS motor and battery, has a simple 9 speed drivetrain and powerful hydraulic disc brakes. It also comes in at a very reasonable 42.2 lbs...but can easily accommodate fenders, racks or other accessories. We also provide 2 years free service on all our new bikes, including electric assist models like... the Connect. Stop in to give it a try. #opusbikes #ebike #ebikes #baaw #assembledincanada #bellevilleontario #bikeshopbingo #boqbikes #iloveidealbike #shimanosteps

This December has been a real mixed bag of weather. Yesterday was cold and sunny, and I ran into a number of other trail users out on PEC’s Millenium Trail. I think it might be called a monocycle...and the trail was dry in most spots. Monday was also a perfect day to try out @velo_orange / @roadrunnerbags Mini Rando bag. Fits a lunch, an extra pair of gloves, camera or whatever else you need for day trips. Handmade in Los Angeles! You can pick one up in the store, we’ve got ...Black, Green and Orange...and matching saddle bags to boot. #minirando #veloorange #musa #roadrunnerbags #everydaybike #gravelbike #milleniumtrail #cyclepec #escapeeveryday #iloveidealbike

We got to ride this little strip of heaven, running parallel to the casino development on Bell Boulevard. Nicely done... can’t wait to see what it connects to! We used it for a quick return from Frankford, via the wonderful bike lane along Hamilton road. Bit by bit the pieces of bike route puzzle are falling into place... ... #bikeride #bellevilleontario #bikepath #boqbikes #bicyclelife #bikeshopbingo #mondaysoff #bicycleinfrastructure
