Columbus Bicycle Co-Op

The Columbus Bicycle Co-op is Columbus, Indiana’s only not-for-profit community bike garage. The Co-op exists to make bicycling an affordable and sustainable means of transportation and recreation for all residents of Bartholomew County.

Classes, tools, parts, bikes, and workspace are available for free or very little cost. Bike aficionado volunteers with knowledge of bike mechanics, bike safety, various types of riding, and local routes and trails can help you during open hours.

We don’t offer tune-up services nor will someone repair your bike for you, but volunteers will help you learn to do it yourself. We have most of the tools and parts you may need.
