On October 10, 1994, Recycled Cycles opened it doors to the public. We had envisioned Recycled Cycles to be an alternative to the "typical" bike shop by offering lower prices through the sale of pre-owned bicycles, parts, and accessories. We wanted Recycled Cycles to be a place where cyclists would want to shop, where bike shop professionals would want to work, and where both customers and employees could have fun sharing their knowledge of and enthusiasm for cycling. Although the shop has grown a lot over the past 12 years ( we now also sell new bikes ), these remain our goals to this day. The staff here at Recycled Cycles has grown as our business has grown. We are proud of each of them and the service they provide to our customers. Several of our crew celebrated their five and ten year anniversaries in 2009. As you scroll through our website staff members will greet you with each page. Notice we come in all shapes and sizes, some with tattoos and some with crazy hair but we all share a passion for cycling and are here to help you. That question is rather like asking, "how much does a car cost?" It all depends on the make, model, and condition. But I can make a few generalizations. For a used road or mountain bike, $150 and up ; for a used kid's bike, $25 and up. Of course, some used bikes cost quite a bit more than even our typical new bike. A new, race-ready road bike can easily cost $3000 or more. So, if someone consigns such a bike in excellent condition with us for $1900, that's still a rather expensive bike, but it's also an exceptional value if you're looking for such a bike. If we bought some used department-store-quality bikes for very little money, fixed them up in little time, and sold them for $99, we might be able to make a few bucks. But, most such bikes are made of low-quality materials, are not designed to be maintained, are heavy, and don't work very well despite the best efforts of skilled mechanics. So we generally don't buy such bikes or offer them for sale.
