Welcome to the GBP Blog

This is the Blog associated with our main website TheGreenBicycleProject.org

The GBP has merged with Damn Good Bikes LLC. Please visit the new blog for more recent updates.

We are the GBP. Our mission is to keep bikes on the road and thus keep cars off. We call this “Bikecycling”; that’s recycling, but for bikes. The concept is simple. Take a bike that’s no longer wanted, broken, or even bound for a landfill and apply a bit of knowhow and a lot of elbow grease and you get a bike that can last someone for years. These bikecycled bikes are sold at a price that covers only our costs in repairing them so as to provide bicycles at the lowest cost possible. All of our bikes are repaired and tuned by a mechanic so that from the moment you pick them up they are ready to hit the road. Take a look below for our current project bikes and completed rides.

Location:
We are located in the US Storage facility at Capital Circle NE and Mahan Rd. While have moved into our new store, we are in the same complex. To get there follow the road through the complex, around the 90 degree bend and make the first left (at the tree). We'll be the first store front on your right. Sound complex? The best way to find us is to follow the bikes!

Buying our bikes:
Please visit our main website at thegreenbicycleproject.org for information about buying our bikes. You may also email us at Thegreenbicycleproject@gmail.com.

SOLD: MGX DXR (Mongoose) Dual Suspensio Mountain Bike





Today's bikes is a Red/Black MGX DXR (Mongoose) Dual Suspensio Mountain Bike. This bike is a full size (approx 18") frame bike with 26" wheels and is a 21 speed. As this is a soft tail mountain bike it is for for any rider between 5'6" and 6'6" or "adult" size. It's a speed grip shift shift and works beautifully. Onroad of off this bike is wonderful!

I've checked this bike and found it in very good condition. There is some cosmetic rust but none of it interferes with the bike's operation. The drive train has been cleaned and lubed and the chain has been replaced. Brakes work very well as do the shifters.

This bike is classified as a "Green" bike and is priced accordingly at $75.

*This bike was origionaly donated to Krank it Up and part of the proceeds go to them.

You may email me or stop by Krank it up on a day when I'm working on my bikes there.
