OPUS2013 Enjoy the ride! One of the few things just about everyone agrees on? Bikes are a good thing. Judging by the number of folks saddling up these days, bikes are also a growing thing. From the novice to the super-fit gram-counter, from the two-wheel fashionista to the committed commuter, from the Sunday rider to the white-knuckle thrill-seeker, the numbers are surging. So are the miles of bike paths, bike parks and mountain bike trails. After all, bikes are better for the environment, often faster in the city than a polluting engine, and a whole lot healthier. In short, bikes are on a roll — and so is Opus. We founded Opus 13 years ago in the cycle-friendly city of Montreal. With the wind at our backs, we’ve introduced one technical and stylistic innovation after another, and launched many exciting new models. Best of all, we’ve shared Montrealers’ passion for the beautifully designed, cunningly engineered and superbly crafted two-wheeled wonders known as Opus bikes. Got a few minutes? If you’re not going for a ride, the secondbest use of your time is to check out our bikes and see exactly what we mean.
We make great bikes If you’re new to Opus, the first thing to learn is that we’re always working to perfect our bikes. We’re forever tweaking, revising and reengineering. Forever ratcheting up performance, comfort and style. To be frank, we’re a little obsessive about our work. (Just ask our spouses. On second thought...) So we’re quite proud of our 2013 catalog. It captures everything that’s distinctive about Opus bikes: Our fierce dedication to quality and performance. And our firm belief that we build and spec’ the best bikes on the planet. So what’s new for 2013? In the interests of high-end performance and comfort, we’ve given our all-carbon frames a big makeover. Mountain bike enthusiasts will thrill to our expanded line of 29ers and well-matched componentry. And our über-cool Urbanista family gets the Porto and Lisboa, while Corso and Trajetto join their urban-sport cousins. As for younger riders, just try to tear them away from our new Thunder. This is the real-deal: A high-performance mountain bike for the budding mountaineer. And, if you’re looking for new styles (don’t forget, we’re from Montreal), we respectfully suggest you check out this year’s exciting new colors and graphics. It’s been a blast putting it all together for you. We hope you enjoy the ride.
