The clocks have sprung forward and the snow is melting. It’s time to starting thinking about bringing that build you’ve been dreaming of all winter to life.
@step.thruu & @bike.breath are teaming up to host Ottawa’s only Bike Parts Swap Meet (we think). Join us April 19 at the Rideau Curling Club to buy, sell, and trade all things bike gear.
Parts Swap is free to attend for the general public. Come on down 11am-4pm to trade, barter, and buy cycling related gems to help put the finishing touches on that dream build, or just replace your Suntour 7-Speed freewheel (shout out @retroridesca ).
Got lots of parts, frames, accessories, clothing, or bike related trinkets laying around? Reserve a table to set up your gear for sale and trade. Tables are $10-15, and are already 80% sold. Grab one while you can at stepthrucc.com! This is a community focused event that prioritizes participation from individual community members and our bike shop sponsors.
Big thanks to our generous shop sponsors @fullcycleottawa , @retroridesca and @phatmoosecycles , whose contributions have helped to subsidize the cost of tables for community members. We can’t wait to shop their parts bins.
Stay tuned for more community focused partners and pals that will be joining us at Swap Parts Meet Bike. 👜☕️🐉🚲
