Will there be new bikes/frames since the last one?

We receive all types of bikes, even tandems, as donations almost daily.

Will it be the bike you’re looking for, I can’t say.

We have a lot of volunteers. Show up, tell a volunteer what you want to do with the bike: ride to work, weekend scenic rides, train for a triathlon and we can help you find one that will fit the bill.

Our mission is to put people on bikes, during every sale, I show somebody a bike on Facebook Marketplace when we don’t have one in their size or suits their use case.

I would have gone, but it unfortunately conflicts with No Kings. I'll mark the 3rd Saturday in April.

$25-250.

In August I got this 2019 Trek X-caliber 9 frame for $100.

Still had the air fork, SLX shifter and the XT rear derailer.

I had a 27.5” 141 boost QR wheel set and SLX brake set at home
