10x10 space, Gordon & a tiny tool board, happy after a crazy season of repairing bikes. 2014'

Basement dwellers somehow win best bike mechanic again :) Thanks to all our lovely customers!

Moved into a garage. More space, same building, but now people can get in without phoning us

Outside wall graffiti'd up trying to let people know a bike shop is in this parking garage.

OG Steve B. helping out in 2017' note the garage door opener. It was like a clubhouse!

It's almost spring in 2017 and JT and Gord are taking care of business in the basement.

Trying to look the part but most think he looks like dexter with those gloves

Having a little fun in a cargo bike. Summer of 2018 with ol pal JT

Sometimes we would try to sell our wares at the Parkdale flea.

Renovicted, we finally pulled the trigger on a real deal storefront, with a cool old sign.

Dec. 2018, Renovations start on our new shop. So stressful, Rent 5x more, but people believed in us

Jan 2019. 1412 Sales floor version 1.0. The most amount of bikes we've ever had for sale

Our first year in 1412. Marky busy as heck during 2019 season. Bikes in shot are ready for pickup

So proud to have won these back in 2014 & 2015. We really hustled for this award. Thank you all!

Parkdale love. Given to us in the first month we opened. We are so grateful to the community.
