Hi. I spotted (via google) some interesting forum threads here about bike repair and even moreso the ones on retrofitting (changing out gears, derailleurs, etc). I had (years ago) totally disassembled a cheap (police auction) bike, repainted the frame, and reassembled so I learned a lot at that time, and its about time, probably this spring, that I'm planning to do that again, so I thought I'd join in advance of when I'm going to want to ask questions.

Are there many users here from Canada? from Ontario? from Toronto? It might be nice to pick some brains in person as well as remotely on here.

Cheers.

Martin
