Used Bicycles: Sustainability Anyone?
So you’re thinking about finding a used bicycles shop? Way to go. Buying a used bike will save you money, keep the environment cleaner, as well as encourage the recycling process in general, which leads to more people being able to helps themselves and their environment.

Used bicycles are a win / win proposition. I’ve heard people voice their concerns that used bicycles are not likely to last as long, that they’ll break down sooner just because they’ve been used more.

But anyone that rides bikes regularly knows that there are just going to be repairs to have done from time to time, whether the bike is second hand or brand spanking new.

If you live in a larger city there are whole sub-cultures of bike riding enthusiasts and these people can be some of your best allies in finding out where the best bike shops are, which bike shops deal in used bikes and / or offer reasonably priced and quality bicycle repair services.

If you live in an area that has some independent publications next to the major newspapers, pick up a few. Chances are you’ll find some ads for some of the cooler bike shops.

And nearly every town or city has Salvation Army centers and other resale shops like that. These are wonderful places to find used bicycles. Just be sure
