Come check them out and winterize your bike. Also, our turnaround on repairs is pretty quick right now.

Bike for Shelter and Commuter Checks.





You can now register for the Bike For Shelter ride in our shop. The ride is on September 27th and benefits victims of human trafficking. For more information or to register online check out http://www.bikeforshelter.org/.

A Better Cycle is now prepared to accept Commuter Check Bicycle Vouchers. This is money that you can get from your employer to put towards your commute, and in Portland that means your bike. So ask you employer if they are a part of the Commuter Check program or check out http://www.commutercheck.com/ for more information.
