Bike friends,
Our 2021 @larryvsharry listings are (nearly) complete. Waiting on the double seat pricing and availability to round things out. Here's the preview, time to start dreaming/building! #LdnOntBike
The bread-and-butter E6100 returns. Gates Carbon Belt Drive is why this bike is spectacular - silent, maintenance-free, and tons of fun! londonbicyclecafe.com/bike-store/lar…
New this year is the Shimano EP8 motor - 85 Nm of torque (WOWZERS!) coupled with a Shimano XT Di2 12-speed derailleur for maximum speed, range, and maneuverability. Who said cargo bikes have to drive like minivans? Also pictured, a new LizzardKing colourway! Yum!
What I'm personally excited about? The double seat for carrying smaller children. Yes, this is entirely personal circumstances, but it will make my life so much easier just being able to strap Rosie into the built-in seat inside a roll cage. So much safety!
And then there are the colours. Oh the colours! Brand new in 2021: Moondog (navy), Bollocks Yellow (replaces Submarine), Major Tom Red (replaces Sgt Pepper), and the LizzardKing has shed his skin for a new shade of green!
Which is your favourite new colour? Comments appreciated, too!
Lots of favourite designs return, of course. Clockwork Orange, Bluebird, Race Green, Bullitt Black, and Milk Plus (and Ra aluminium, which is no paint at all) will all return for 2021!
Naturally, a GIF was required for all these beautiful designs.
How do you get your hands on a Bullitt for the spring? It's best to get your orders in soon. 2021 is shaping up to be a wild year in the bike industry. We've pre-ordered a few Bullitt, but with so many combinations of colour/gear, you'll want to make it *yours!*
The Bullitt accessory page will help you build/price your Bullitt in $CAD - don't hesitate to reach out to help get the right parts! londonbicyclecafe.com/bike-store/bul…
The Larry vs Harry Bullitt is a true design masterpiece. It turns your regular activities into an exciting adventure! There's nothing better than taking the long way home, or even the wrong way home on Bullitt. Contact us today for a test ride!
🚲⚡️🫀🔥
1 more thing. We know cargo bikes are $$$, but think of it this way: a new bike costs less than *depreciation* of a Toyota Camry driven off the lot. Fortunately, @LibroCU offers us financing, letting you ride a well-equipped Bullitt for as little as $188/month. Bravo, neighbours.

Today the Secretary General of the United Nations called for oil production to be ramped down immediately due to the severity of the climate emergency. Another cyclist was killed by a negligent traffic engineer. We need immediate action on both issues, now

The @CityofLdnOnt has 3500+ km of roads, & 7.5 km of protected bike lanes planned/funded before 2030. That's simply not good enough. We need to rethink our streets, from the ground up. Small tweaks & disconnected half-measure infrastructure won't fix the problems we face.

Working on a bunch of web-store updates. Pre-orders for 2021 will be live soon (we don't have a lot left in store, send a DM if you're looking for something sooner than spring!). Most stoked about Bullitt EP8 - 85 Nm of torque and Di2 XT 12-speed gearing... launch time.
What a spectacular lineup.
Which Bullitt are you? List your top 3! #LdnOntBike

Alright, bike friends, I just locked in our last spring order. It's the largest single cargo bike purchase we've ever made, so let's get excited about what's coming!! #CargoCult2021 #LdnOntBike
Does anyone still play Mario Kart? I feel like cargo bikes have lots of analogs to the characters in that game... #MarioCargo

Tern HSD: Definitely Toad. Small. Lightweight. So agile in corners. Can fit in small spaces.
Which charcter best represents the Larry vs Harry e-Bullitt? Definitely Mario. "I'ma gonna win!" is the attitude of Bullitt (the fastest cargo bike) The new EP8 Shimano Steps motor is extra powerful, like getting a super mushroom whenever you need it (demo coming!). #MarioCargo

Can't wait, can't wait for the new Tern HSD!
DYK: HSD stands for "Haul Stuff Daily", which is what this bike is PERFECT for. Plus it folds easily so you can take it with you anywhere!

What's awesome about the HSD? Vertical parking for one... live in an apartment? Need to maximize space in your garage? The HSD just fits. Everywhere.
Ahh, look at that perfect office parking space. Better than your current parking space in "Lot H".

Psst there's still a few hours to grab a Father's Day present or two - order online by 5pm today and we'll make sure to deliver for dad! Here's a quick thread with some great ideas! 👇
Brooks Rain Cape. Rain is coming this week, we think this is one of the best ways to stay dry out there! londonbicyclecafe.com/bike-store/bro…
2. Brooks Barbican Messenger Bag. Not quite impulse-purchase worthy, but durable, beautiful, and timeless. I've had one since 2011 and can say with certainty it's the best bag I've ever owned. londonbicyclecafe.com/bike-store/bar…

This week has continued to be absolutely bonkers at the store. We're doing our best to keep up, but it's a challenge. Everyone is tired. We currently have less than 1/3 of our typical inventory in stock for this time of year. 1/n
Staff have been absolutely incredible. Working extra long days when asked (try to avoid this...), helping out wherever they can, and generally just making shit happen. Thanks y'all. 2/n
Appointments for repairs still require patience. We're booking repair appointments two weeks out for in-store, and three weeks out for mobile. We still have a few flat tire slots every day, so don't worry, we'll get that critical stuff done for you ASAP. 3/n
