I'd appreciate advice on which Vancouver, B.C. bike shop to bring my ti Guru frame for a Campy 11 speed bike build.

Depends on what part of town you're in.

First choice would be La Bicicletta on Broadway at Cambie.

Othe choices would be Strada on Cordova or Different Bikes in Ambleside in West Van.

Thanks for the info. I live in South Surrey and need to drive to Vancouver for campy related work.

Another (less snazzy) alternative is Pacific Multisport on Main St. The owner, John, has been my go to guy for 4 years now after trying many shops in town.

Pricing is fair, quality is top notch, decent turn around time and he is familiar with Campy. Great guy too. Now the secret is out.

If you're not getting it built at Mighty Riders (http://www.mightyriders.ca/), you may well be getting it built at the wrong place.

They're rough around the edges, but Ed is the best mechanic, and only former pro mechanic I know of, in the city
