In the early 90s, Chris Chance licensed the Team Chance moniker to a Toronto-based bicycle distributor. The frames were MIG-welded in Taiwan and matched many of the specs of the Fat Chance bikes, but also inhabited some of the geometry innovations coming out of the West Coast. Ultimately, Chos Chance chose to discontinue the relationship. This is one of those survivors... rattle canned, everything seized, converted to SS. After I got the seatpost and stem out with some serious elbow grease, I built it up to honour the early-90s Dirt Rag/East Coast singletrack vibes I always loved. Hope you enjoy it too. It rips!
