All things Canadian.....

The BRC office was in my town so we saw lots of them around. I considered them similar to Norco's in quality and design. My friend rode one across Canada in the early 90's. I'm a bit sad the brand died out.

They are nice bikes that come dirt cheap, these days.

@Ingola and I dug up another weird Canadian yesterday outside of Montreal. Far West was an outdoor clothing company, goretex jackets and hiking gear. It seems that they got BRC to make them a bike, and it is better equipped than any BRC I've seen.
Tange tubes and fork, Dia Compe brakes, even the straddle ends are marked DC, suntour group, thought I saw Suzue hubs, arayas, Nitto bars... "Quality From Japan
Designed by BRC"

And since I was doing some research, here's what BRC was doing in the 70s, 80s, and 90s
