A place to learn and repair

Use repair stands, tools and used parts to work on your bicycle. Shop monitors can offer guidance on common repairs. The project also offers used bicycles and parts, and accepts donations of bikes, components and accessories.

These services are described on the Bike Project’s existing website. Confirm availability with the project before visiting.
