About The Mega Tour Brands
About Rocky Mountain
Founded in 1981, Rocky Mountain has been designing and testing mountain bikes on Vancouver's North Shore after growing bored of riding road bikes. Since then, one core thing has remained consistent—an obsession and group dedication towards sharing that passion and expertise with riders on the North Shore and across the world.
About Specialized
Specialized employees are all riders - that fact has guided their every decision since 1974. When quality tires weren't around, Specialized strove to make the best. When people wanted to ride cruisers in the dirt, they made the first production mountain bike. When roadies wanted to go faster, they doubled-down on carbon and built their own wind tunnel. And when they saw kids struggling to focus in school, they began supporting Outride to help promote better health through cycling. As quickly as the mountain bike arrived, so did the issue of trail access. In 1987, Specialized took part in a round table of advocacy groups, and within six months, the International Mountain Bike Association (IMBA) was born. In short order, Specialized became trail access evangelists. Without trail advocates, there'd be no trails to protect. It's as simple as that. Specialized has always been focused on building not only quality trails, but quality bikes for mountain bikers. Specialized. Made for riders, by riders.
About BMC
BMC (Bicycle Manufacturing Company) is known for having spent decades (since 1986) building the sport of biking and pushing bike technologies to the limits to make game changing innovations. BMC bikes are known for their efficiency, ability to climb well, and creating speed. BMC has their research and development facility, The Impec Lab, in Grenchen, Switzerland which allows BMC to create, innovate and refine on their own terms. With a wide range of models to suit a variety of riding needs and styles, everyone can find a BMC bike for their riding goals.
About ERIK'S
Erik was only 13 when he started ERIK'S in 1977. His first bike, a hand-me-down from an older family member, sparked his interest in bikes. With entrepreneurial spirit, and the money he saved from his job as a paperboy, Erik began his business. ERIK'S Bike Board Ski has grown into the Midwest's leading bike, snowboard & downhill ski retailer. We are passionate about our sports & experts on all the gear we carry!
