March frame special…

I thought I would come up with some sort of March special since folks seemed to appreciate the February tire frame special. After going off the deep end (maybe it wasn’t so deep) on the subject of brakes last month, I thought “brake special.” And that’s what the Black Mountain Cycles March frameset or complete bike special is: free brakes!

Details – for the month of March, if you purchase a Black Mountain Cycles cross or road frame, you’ll get a free set of brakes. Pick up a road bike and you’ll get yourself a set of Tektro R539 brake calipers in black or silver. That there, readers, is about a $70 value.

If the cross frame/bike is what you are after, you’ll get a a bike’s worth of canti brakes; either the Tektro CR720 or Avid Shorty 4, your choice. This is about a $60 – $65 deal, so to make it even with the road special, I’ll also throw in the steerer tube mounted cable hanger so that you can run your canti brakes properly.

There, those two deals are about even-steven. That’s it. Have a great Wednesday. Call me, email me, or come on in to the shop for your new frameset or bike!

I can’t find a photo of a bike w/ the Avid Shory 4. These are the Shorty 6 brakes. The arms are the same, but with more of a matte finish and the pads are not cartridge type pads, which is a nice feature and is found on the Tektro CR720.
