They sell recycled, upcycled, retro and vintage second-hand bikes that are fully refurbished so there’s no need to spend extra money on a brand-new bike if you don’t have the budget. The Chisel's all-new frame utilizes our D'Aluisio Smartweld technology that moves the hydroformed tube joints away from the areas of the highest stress, making the finished frame's balance of strength, rigidity, and weight more pronounced than any alloy frame in history. This not only makes the Chisel one of the lightest alloy hardtail frames out there at 1,350g, but it also allows for tuned frame stiffness across all sizes. Dual Link Pedals w/ Toe Cages: Offers flexibility of using standard toe cages or SPD slips when it comes to workouts

Transport Wheels: The C6 is a sturdy, durable bike weighing 112 pounds, but it has transport wheels for easy portability after workouts.

We’ll be back after this short break

Most important to me, the C6 Bike is a generic platform upon which I can hang a range of fitness services—including Zwift, Kinetic Fit, and even Peloton—via their apps. This does not always transpire flawlessly—there’s something to be said for integrated systems such as Peloton’s—but I prefer the freedom and variety the C6 Bike provides. C6 Bike Hardware The Bowflex C6 is an indoor cycle, so it’s optimized for intense rides and fast calorie burn. If this is the kind of workout you are looking for in combination with interactive training, the Bowflex C6 is a solid exercise bike choice. Its wide selection of micro-adjustable resistance levels (100) from a heavy-duty 40-pound flywheel means it will provide enough challenge for most trainees. You’ll also get upper-body exercise as well as cardio training on the C6 as it includes a pair of dumbbells and multi-position handlebars. Its compact size and transport wheels also means it’s a suitable match for most home gym spaces. Its dual-link pedals allow you to adopt your preferred riding style and the adjustable seat means you can find your perfect fit before you ride. However, if low-intensity workouts are what you’re looking for instead, you should opt for a recumbent bike. Poor Moose Meadows is often overlooked as visitors whiz by on their way to its more famous neighbour, Johnston Canyon. This is a shame as Moose Meadows is a beautiful, and significantly less crowded hike through a lush forest. The best part? The Moose Meadows trail ends at the Johnston Canyon Upper Falls! Those who stop at the Internment Camp pullout will learn a great deal about this troubling time in Canada’s past. For those who are interested in more information about Canada’s internment camps, there is a better exhibit found at the Banff Cave and Basin, another of the must-see attractions in the national park.

Located in a rare section of montane forest in Banff National Park, this area is rich in wildlife. The forest surrounding the 12 picnic tables consists of old growth aspens and towering evergreen trees. The sound of the trembling aspen leaves is very relaxing. Lofty’s is a small family-run bike repair shop with over 15 years of mechanical experience. Customers find that they are very knowledgeable and charge decent prices for their repairs. If you plan on visiting both Banff and Lake Louise during your visit, the places to stay along the Bow Valley Parkway are approximately halfway between these two popular destinations, especially the places near Castle Junction. In response to the Peloton revolution, more and more brands are creating durable but affordable indoor cycles that support interactive training. The Bowflex C6 is one of these. It fuses high-quality components with an open-access console which can connect to a variety of fitness apps. It doesn’t have a flashy screen; it’s a bring-your-own-tech bike to keep the costs down. Once you connect your own tablet or phone to the C6’s console, however, you open the doors to top-class training from Peloton, Zwift, Sufferfest and more. It’s worth noting here that MYX Fitness recently entered the ring with a closer-to-Peloton experience for a very reasonable price. If a connected bike with a built-in screen is more your speed, we’d recommend a read of our full MYX Fitness Bike review.The bike's major downside is its weight. If it were my own bike I would probably change the wheels to something a bit lighter and more tubeless-friendly, with a rear 160 rotor to boot. Morant’s Curve is one of the most famous photography spots in Banff National Park. This photogenic spot was named for Nicholas Morant, a photographer for Canadian Pacific Railway. Parks Canada often used his photos to promote Banff and Lake Louise. It starts with our Turbo Full Power 2.2 motor and Turbo Connect Unit (TCU), which provide Levo with a smooth and seamless amplification of your efforts—4x you power that lets you choose where to ride, and when you want to do it. Levo also shatters limitations when it comes to range, amplifying your effort for up to five hours of trail time. Now you can ride farther, and explore more, than ever before. And the optimized chassis boasts 150mm of custom-tuned rear suspension and adjustable geometry that delivers a stable and natural ride like no other. Because at the end of the day, it's the ride that matters. Believe it. Levo's fully integrated Turbo Full Power 2.2 motor, 500Wh battery, and Turbo Connect Unit deliver category-leading 90 Nm of torque and 565 watts of power for up to five hours of ride time, empowering you to ride farther and faster than ever before. Not everyone will follow my lead in avoiding Peloton bikes. If you have an ample budget and are drawn to the rich culture with charismatic instructors that Peloton has fashioned over the years, don’t let me stop you. Peloton has lately seen financial troubles and seems to have an uncertain future, with the possibility of being acquired (Apple has been mentioned as a potential buyer, but that seems highly unlikely). But I don’t believe its bikes will be obsolete anytime soon, even though Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman has recommended that Peloton get out of hardware entirely.

Johnston Canyon is served by two public transit bus routes. Roam routes 8S and 9 both have bus stops at Johnston Canyon. The Banff Hop-On Hop-Off bus also stops at Johnston Canyon. One of the most popular attractions in Banff National Park, a visit to Johnston Canyon is highly recommended for those driving the Bow Valley Parkway. In fact, it’s not only one of our favorite easy hiking trails in Banff, it’s number one on our list of the best hikes in Banff National Park!Here is the confusing part: Zwift detects the C6 Bike as controllable during Bluetooth pairing, which appears to be meaningless since the user derives no benefit from this designation that I can see.
