You also rent bikes to tourists who enjoy visiting Alberta’s Rocky Mountains during the spring, summer, and fall seasons.

Low prices for the metal-framed mountain bikes sold by these stores have undercut your store’s profits over several years. Prices for a new line of low-cost alloy-composite bicycles manufactured and assembled in Canada range from $400 to $700, far less than all-aluminum bikes.
