Bike Library & Workshop
The Bike Library & Workshop is OPEN!
The Bike Library & Workshop is a community bike shop on campus and is an initiative under Sustain SU. We are fully equipped with the tools and space necessary to repair and maintain bikes. Bike repairs are DIY, however, our volunteers & Bike Library Mechanic can provide guidance and offer some help. Tool and stand use are entirely FREE, but we do take monetary donations!
The Bike Library also sells used and new components and parts such as tubes, tires, and other accessories. We are not taking donations of bikes due to the lack of space, but feel free to donate any parts or components that are not of use to you.
Note: We do not bleed hydraulic brakes or repair suspension. Please visit your local bike shop for these specialized services.
Events & Updates
The Bike Library will be closed between August 29th and September 2nd due to the Week of Welcome programming.
Applications for Sustainability Ambassadors are now open! You can apply to join our Bike Library volunteer team for 2022/23 year. Check here for more details.
