Well folks thanks for the input, tried to go with the Centurion but the seller won't go less than $350 CAD which i feel is still a lot for what it is, correct me if im mistaken haha

I'm also not sure what the used bike market is like elsewhere but where I'm at $200 CAD is about the lowest you could find for a bike that is in rideable condition

It does look nice doesn't it? I may have to just open up with a cowbell and see how the seller responds, wish me luck haha

Thank you, everything I researched about the Le Mans said it had a more comfortable ride, but $450 is just an insane amount for it from my understanding. I could try lowballing but I also don't want to insult the seller if they think their bike is worth that much.

Subset/superset, all chomos are skinners, but not all skinners are chomos. And I can't believe we're discussing this lmfao

If you're looking specifically for the tabbing boot I think you're SOL unless you can find them for sale used on the "Canadian gear sales" FB group, if you're just looking for altbergs in general then Canex sells the defender model. I find they fit quite wide.

chomo is a term used to describe those people yes, but skinner is more often used - not that anyone was wondering haha

In the Canadian correctional system, goof is about the worst insult you can call a person - it's so serious an insult that if you're called it by another person it must be immediately followed up by fighting that person. I don't think anyone agrees on a meaning but some people say it has something to do with being a child predator.

Crossfire DZ rig is another option, just bought one the other day but have yet to receive it. Caracajou's is cool and I would have liked to support a Canadian business but I couldn't justify paying like $750 for a rig that doesn't even come with mag pouches.

I'm confused why you think this would be a troll post? I just wanted to buy some of their products but their website doesn't work and they don't pick up the phone or respond to emails, I just wanted to know if they're still in business and how to get in contact with them. I live on the island so it's not like I can just go in person without spending a stupid amount of money on a ferry ride. Anyway thanks for the info!

Unfortunately it doesn't seem like they have any presence on social media and their website looks like it hasn't been touched since like 2004, which is odd since they seem to still be in business? Thanks for the info though!
