Road Bikes

Many of you have been asking for road bikes. In general I don't deal in such big ticket items (I leave that to Dan) but In the last two-three weeks I happen to have accumulated 3 road bikes! Unfortunately only one will qualify as Green bikes due to the cost of parts. The other two will be reasonably priced based on quality and similar aspects. I will post them separately but please understand, I can not hold a bike and I absolutely can not trade bikes.

New Bikes From Tracy

I just wanted to take a moment to thank a friend fo the GBP Tracy for donating several bikes today. All three of the bikes are in good condition which means they will be available sooner rather than later. Even though it's December, there's a great call for bikes and the more we can put back on the road the better. Thank you again Tracy.

Quick Note

One of the great things about the GBC is that sometimes people come to me with a specific need that I can fill. One of our fans, who we will call Ms. R, came by tonight and picked up a bike I was refurbishing for her. The bike never made it to the site but it will make it back to the street. She also made a donation that will go toward bike repair at Krank It Up! So let me say thanks to Ms. R and I hope she likes her bike!

SOLD: Woman's Magna Outreach MTB

The bike is a red/purple woman's Magna Outreach mountain bike. It's a hard frame mountain bike with grip shifters. It's a 17" frame bike with 24" wheels and is a 15 speed. That pegs the ideal rider as being between 5'0" and 5'6".

I've checked this bike and found it in very good condition. The chain has been replaced drive train has been cleaned and lubed. Brakes work very well as do the shifters.

This bike is classified as a "Green" bike and is priced accordingly at $40. As this is the last November bike I am applying the 25% discount making the price $30!

Holiday Sale and DECEMBER BIKES!

Hello GBP fans! Tomorrow is another month and that means NEW BIKES! Since December is the month of giving (and not such a good month for riding), all the bikes for this month are going to be "premium" for a very non-premium price! In the same spirit, all the bikes remaining from last month are going to get a price cut... in the 25% range! Also, keep your eyes open for Holiday specials that are guaranteed not to last!

This month's Linup Includes:
Green Giant Fixed Frame MTB
GT Comfort Bike
Trek 800 Fixed Frame MTB
Peugeot Touring Bke (Yes, it's a road bike!)
A painted roadbike

As always I'm looking for bikes to repair for January and beyond. If you have something let me know by email. Again the address is TheGreenBicycleProject@gmail.com.

SOLD: Schwinn Caliente Woman's "Mini" Bike

This bike was posted and "sold" a little while ago and the person who wanted it changed their mind.

The bike is a navy blue woman's Schwinn Caliente "mini" cruiser bike. It's a light weight road bike frame with the swept back handlebars for comfort. It's a 15" frame bike with 24" wheels and is a 10 speed. That pegs the ideal rider as being between 4'6" and 5'6". However, I've ridden it and must say that at 5'9" it's a little bit small but very fun to ride.

I've checked this bike and found it in very good condition. Tires and tubes have been replaced and the drive train has been cleaned and lubed. Brakes work very well as do the shifters.

This bike is classified as a "Green" bike and is priced accordingly at $65. That's a 15% discount!


*I should note that this bike was donated by a gentleman who had had it stashed under his house for quite some time. When he heard about the project he insisted we fix it up and get it back on the road.

Chains, Tires, and Tubes/Road Bikes

For some reason I've been having trouble getting chains, tires, and tubes from my supplier as of late. While this is likely just a hiccup in supply, there is a chance I might have to go looking elsewhere for parts. As such, once the current crop of bikes is cleared out the next set might be delayed.

Also, I've had several requests for road bikes lately. I don't really get much in that type, at least not green bikes anyway. If you're looking for bikes of that type, my friend Dan specializes in them. He can be contacted at visibleorange@gmail.com .
