I used to work at this store during my summers while I was at University so I know the two owner pretty well. They are great guys and are very knowledgeable of their products. They do offer all ranges of bikes but they specialize in the higher end road bikes.
If you need people to ride with you can go out for a ride with the two owners and I think they might still have a small riding club going on.
Check these guys out if you need a bike for racing, leisure, etc.

So I have expensive hobbies and beyond that I'm constantly adopting new expensive hobbies. So when it comes to spending my hard earned dollars on my expensive hobbies I choose my spending holes carefully.
So I am obsessed with cycling. I recently bought a new road bike on ebay and needed all the fancy accessories to go with it so I could do some racing, club rides, etc.
I found wheels of bloor here on n49 after getting a little frustrated with the more amateur oriented shops like urbane cyclist or mec.
Wheels is a cycling shop, they're geared (geared.. get it like bike gears) towards the advanced amateur who is either training for the tour de france, or just enjoys riding in the country on weekends.
They stock the tour de france winning Canadian bike brand "Cervello" (ridden by team csc) and are quite dedicated to them. They scoffed at my American made Cannondale, but I could sense that it was in fun.
So I dropped a few (or more) hundred dollars on accessories and the guys there were brief yet helpful. They installed my new water bottle holders, computer, and pedals while I was shopping for a new racing jersey.
I've been back since to get a new tire and once again the service was helpful yet brief.
The prices here are standard, not exceptional but by no means marked up over msrp. Usually I appreciate paying full price to get the expertise and advice that comes along with a niche shop like this. However I have been a little disappointed by the brevity with which I've been treated during my past couple visits. I will most likely return but not before trying out another shop. I have heard good things about "sweet petes" and am willing to look into it.
All and all a good experience but it could have been excellent.
