For anyone who would like to travel with their Ebike on a plane, but doesn't know how to legally bring the ebike battery on a plane. If you would like your ebike to be able to do such, we can electrify any bicycle you own, and Grin Technologies makes custom batteries that seperate into lego like parts that each are the legal maximum AH a battery can have on a plane, and then they all snap together once you arrive and put them on your bike. let me know if you would ever be i...nterested in electrifying an existing bicycle you have. https://ebikes.ca//elec/batteries/36v-ligo-bulk-order.html
all that a bike can do
A testament to how useful the Tannus armour 3/4 thick inner tube liners can be! my tire had ripped and I’ll probably road 30 km on it plus it’s been sitting around for three days until I got around to replacing the tire as I’ve been staying inside a bit more and yet the Tannus liner has still held the 80 psi of pressure inside my tire the whole time #tannustires #torontocycling
Favourite Toronto garage of the day

Hello everyone, so I don’t really sell products much. More just a repair service. But I wanted to show off these few things I do sell as they are top notch! For dark cold season these WingCycle Turning lights that blink yellow inside your handlebars ends are very nice safety feature. Button activated. -$50 pair The Air Zound Airhorn is the 120db Toronto inventes bicycle pump refillable horn that again for these lower visibility months can save your life if about to get hit-$...25 Pinhead Locking skewer to prevent wheel theft, requires electric grinder to remove without your key-$75 per skewer or less if buying a set. Tannus Solid Airless tides-$100 No flats ever Tannus 3/4 inner tube armour-$70 still basically no flats ever or pinch flats and feels the same as normal tire And the Safe Zone Helmet mirror-$35 Best helmet mirror I’ve ever seen!
Hey all, May be the last couple weeks for Home service Bicycle repair appointments for me, so if you would like any work done book while the suns still shinin! fill the form on the website for a quote and appointment. thanks! have fun and ride safe! www.matteosbikerepair.com I also teach Bike Mechanics and Cycling Safety for all ages, teach kids to bike, and long distance touring strategy as well as mechanic services for folks going on day trips in Ontario & cycling events.... With less overhead comes great prices, Most tune ups delivered to you come to $60-80 avg labour. $45/h + variant travel charge (See FB and google page for list of references/reviews.)

Hello everyone! Happy to share the two top quality Safety items that I sell. I am the only Canadian distributor for both these items. $5 off purchase of either item if you share this post, thanks! Samui Airzound Airhorn-$25 Bicycle pump refillable 120 dB handlebar mounted Airhorn Has a volume setting, compressed air bottle fits a standard water bottle holder. (Invented in Toronto!)... This horn, admittedly I mainly use it for honking cars out of the bicycle lane. It is VERY good at that, but I more push it on customers because it can save your life if a card windows are up/musics on/ and they’re about to hit you and can’t hear a yell. This horn is LOUD Safe Zone Helmet Mirror by Efficient Velo Tools-$35 Largest, most stiff yet flexible mirror I’ve ever found. Once you try the mirror most never turn back, especially those who ride e-bikes and change lanes more regularly it’s reassuring to have a constant peripheral view of what’s behind you. As well as for long distance touring. I forgot to include the horn example in main video so made extra little video just for that gahh, it’s the bottom YouTube link below.

If you want the best helmet mirror on the market or an upgrade, the Safe Zone Helmet mirror is truly the best. Comes with a 5 year garuntee from Efficient Velo Tools. Im surprisingly the Only one in Canada that sells them. (Because normally retailers sell for $60 and customers find that to be too much) ... I sell for $35 Fully flexible position via the connection nodes, but they have never moved on their on accord in my two years of testing.
