Looking for a bike but don't want to spend too much? Paul at Recycled Cycles might have what you…read moreneed. Buying a bike from Paul was a great experience. He is very knowledgeable but doesn't talk down to you. Nor does he push a hard sell, or try to hype up any of his bikes. He comes across as a honest dude. He buys bikes, fixes them up so they are ready to ride, and resells them. The best part -- he offers a 90-day warranty on any bike he sells. Try getting that on Craigslist... Here's how it works. Go to his website and check out his selection. If you see something you like, call him and arrange a time to check out the bike at his UCity home. If you decide you want the bike, you put down a non-refundable 30% deposit on it. After you do this, Paul will spend a couple days getting the bike all tuned up and ready to ride. Then you go back, pay the remaining amount, and take your new used bike. He is happy to install extras like a water-bottle holder or a kickstand for a small fee. I would recommend checking the site often, because his bikes go QUICK (especially the hybrids). He takes credit cards, but I would recommened paying with a check (w/ local address) to avoid a surcharge. Paul also does repairs, and he says that he often works on bikes that bike shops have refused. I picked up a nice hybrid bike for $280+tax and I'm enjoying it.

On my last visit to St. Louis, I wanted to see what mountain biking might exist. After calling a…read morefew local shops, I found Big Shark to offer high-quality hard tail mountain bikes that were new this season. When I got to the shop, Casey made sure that I understood the best of what I could access and what I'm unexpected. Seeing that the website was a little confusing in terms of pricing, he rented me the bike at the lowest price point, at least $25 less than it would've been. When I got to the trails the next day, they were technically interesting and worth the rental. Thank you, Casey and Big Shark.

One of the COOLEST secrets in St Louis for parents!…read more Shhhh. BWorks offers FREE classes for kids! My kids took a six week Learn to Ride course completely free. Both kids were riding safely and confidently when they were done. After that, we did the six week Earn A Bike classes where they learned how to build and maintain their bikes, and learned road safety. At the end, they got to keep their bikes! For Free! It was such an incredible experience. My kids loved their teachers. They had so much fun learning and riding. And now they are zooming around!

My first visit was favorable. I was here to check out BWorks rather than purchase; I'd looked…read moreonline at their available bikes. They have dozens of road, mountain, hybrids, and cruisers for sale. BWorks sells used items. Donated bikes are repaired and resold, or chopped up for parts to tune other bikes. Funds go to help inner city youth gain job skills. However, I am looking to replace a bike inexpensively since the frame of my road bike broke after 25 summers of often jarring country roads. BWorks staff were helpful in guiding me not only to available bicycles in my size, but others that would be ready for sell in two weeks or less. Prices are very reasonable, but don't expect new like condition. In addition to two-wheelers BWorks has all kinds of parts, clothing, and cycling paraphernalia for sale.
