SLO Bicycle Kitchen

 
 

A bicycle kitchen is a place for the community to come together for the purpose of bicycle education, camaraderie, parts recycling and do-it-yourself work which teaches you to be confident in knowing your bike.


The kitchen is a repository of bicycle tools, bicycles, bicycle parts and knowledge available to the community to draw upon at no or very low cost.  We can help you build a bike from the ground up, fix that junker you just found at a garage sale, or simply lube that bike you bought a couple months ago.


Our version of the bike kitchen concept is intended to serve a limited segment of the cycling population - the curious, or the Do-It-Yourself, or those who like to ride the older bicycles that require a different flair for repair.  We specifically seek to avoid competing with the bike shops as much as possible.

I own far too many bikes, none of which is even vaguely stock. I love them all, and can't bear to part with them.
