Welcome

The Recyclery is a non-profit used-bicycle collective.

WE ARE NOT SELLING BICYCLES AT OUR SHOP.

If you would like to purchase a bike please come to one of our scheduled sales listed on the calendar. Our next sale will be happening on October 11th from 10 to 11am. It will be at the South Evanston Whole Foods (1111 Chicago Ave), located at the intersection of Chicago and Greenleaf. If you cannot wait, try Working Bikes or here. Check our calendar for Open Shop times to work on your own bike. Contact us for volunteer opportunities or to donate a bike.
