I'm on the lookout for a mid to high end mtn bike for racing.

Is there a classified section on HV where people would post these type of items? Any other buy/sell websites which are good for Milton?

Thanks.

Mountain bike rider/racer here. Your best bet is still Kijiji or Craigslist, and most of the good stuff is probably closer to the city. I haven't seen much locally listed on there and I check 2 or 3 times a week.

There is a classifieds section here, but I don't think you will find too many bikes posted, at least that are suitable for racing and not from a department store.

Pinkbike.com classifieds are also a good place to check out, and there are quite a few Canadians on there.

The Dr. James bike clinic will most definitely NOT have what I imagine you are looking for.

I found great deal on Marin bikes on eBay, one seller is selling their 2013 lineup at great pries.
Got it shipped to border and picked it up.
Bought 2013 Marin Bobcat 29er for around $650can and paid taxes crossing the border.

Nice! Enjoy the 29er!

Got mine all tuned up and rode at Kelso on Saturday; couldn't ask for better weather!

Thanks! This one is titanium, but I have a couple steel rigid bikes too. One is setup as a 1x6, and the other is also singlespeed. It's perfect for around Ontario IMO!

Where is pete? I thought we were all going to go mountain biking at Kelso one day?
