Only sells used bikes that have been donated.

"We carry a totally random assortment of brands and types of bikes because we work solely off of donations. We are a non-profit (501c3) collective seeking to build community through the restoration of donated and discarded bicycles. We use the 'income' from our used bike sales to help offer a sustainable form of transportation at little to no cost to our people who are connected to us through several social service organizations. We wish to further open ourselves and our resources to the community at large with programs that teach bicycle maintenance, safety, and environmental awareness.

We have a constantly fluctuating inventory of bike accessories-so its best to call ahead and see if we have what you are looking for."

Sells commuter accessories -- basic inventory.

Bikes rented for $10-$15/day with an ID and credit card guarantee

See website for schedule of public workshops and classes on bicycle maintenance.

The staff was very helpful, decent selection of used parts at good prices. They have an open shop, so anybody can come in and use the bike stands and do repairs with their tools, with a recommended donation
