Anyone know if Calgary Cycle has any sales around the holidays? I need to use up my fitness dollars and Ive been eyeing a FS Norco for a while now

Bow Cycle carries Norco and typically has sales around the holidays where they will give you a percentage of a new bike sale back in store credit.Originally Posted by tcon

Ah crap I'm a large, that's a much better deal. However I'm not stuck on the make or model I'm looking for. More interested is a cyclecross/endurance style of bike. I'm a mountain bike rider and just looking for something to fill my time when I don't want to head to the mountains and stay close to hit up the cycle paths in Calgary. Any suggestions would be great as this is new territory for me.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote

Speed Theory has a FELT F65X sitting in the window I've been eyeing. https://www.facebook.com/commerce/pr...3308027413756/
$1299 down from $1799. Believe it is a 56cm? I really don't need another bike...lol. (edit - went by today and only saw a 47cm.)
I ride Cinelli Zydeco 105 as a beater/commuter. Fun bike also.

UK's Chain Reaction Cycles to end Shimano sales to consumers in US, Canada next month
Published December 19, 2018
by Toby Hill
LONDON (BRAIN) — U.K. online retailer Chain Reaction Cycles has announced on its website that it will stop selling Shimano products into North America starting Jan. 1, 2019. As of Wednesday afternoon Pacific time, there was no similar announcement on fellow U.K. e-commerce site Wiggle.com, which merged with Chain Reaction in a $400 million deal in 2016. Wiggle also owns German e-commerce site Bike24.
When shoppers in the U.S. and Canada visit the Chain Reaction site, the home page currently states: "Unfortunately from January 1, we will no longer be able to sell Shimano into your country. We're working with Shimano to be able to sell to you again in the future."
Shimano declined comment Thursday, and BRAIN was working to reach officials at Chain Reaction for comment on the move.
Many North American IBDs have long criticized Shimano for not clamping down on sales by Chain Reaction and Wiggle at retail prices well below dealers' wholesale cost. As a result, many retailers have dramatically reduced their inventory of Shimano parts or stopped stocking the brand altogether.
In fall 2016, BRAIN reported that SRAM had instituted new policies that got its products off European e-commerce sites including Wiggle and Chain Reaction.

No big loss. I find the deals at JensonUSA just as good these days, and they're at your door in 2 days vs. the weeks it takes from Chain Reactions / Wiggle.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
Plus the price match at Jenson takes seconds when you submit a link. Ribble is also another option.
