9 Reasons You Should Buy from TOCycles
While my selection is admittedly far more limited than a real bike store, (and my prices might be slightly higher than what you've seen on ebay, garage sales and maybe even online locally) if I've got what you need, there are some advantages.
But finally, if I don't have something for you, then I am happy to help you find something elsewhere. No Charge! send me photos and specs and price on some other bike you are looking at, and I'll tell you what I think.

- I won't lie to you. (Repeat business and referrals are too important. Plus, I do this not the profit, but for the curiosity and the pleasure of learning about beautiful, unique bikes)
- I won't sell you a bike I don't feel is suitable. (Many bike shops follow the SWIS system – Sell What's In Stock. Even if that means pushing an inappropriate size or style of bike on you.
- I'll tell you the actual pros and cons of any bike. (Every bike has pluses and minuses. You should understand the different grades of components, which wheels are better and worse, when a blemish is just cosmetic and when is it more serious.)
- You can try anything for a couple of weeks, no obligation. (I've been here for 15 years. I am not going anywhere.)
- You can swap any bike for another, any time.
- I'll buy back any bike, any time, (less 25% for each year used.) I am that confident of the quality of my choices that I am happy to have them back.
- No HST (We work at too small a scale to charge HST. So, you save 13%.)
- 24/7 support (OK, not really, but I am pretty available for small tweaks, advice, saddle swaps, etc etc. And if I can't fix it easily, I'll get done what needs doing – and no more – for a fair price. )
- I'll kick in 5% of any sale price to a rider's charity ride of choice.
But finally, if I don't have something for you, then I am happy to help you find something elsewhere. No Charge! send me photos and specs and price on some other bike you are looking at, and I'll tell you what I think.
