Adopt a Bike
We are currently operating by APPOINTMENT
Please reach out to schedule a test-ride:
info@b4hpdx.org // 503-496-6941
We refer to a bicycle’s return to use, whether as a sale or a grant, as an adoption. It is our hope that each of our bicycles return to circulation and will be ridden, valued, and maintained for years to come. A bicycle overhauled at Bikes for Humanity represents hours of work done either by volunteers or grantees. It represents hands-on education, freedom, and empowerment for its rider, and it is our mission in action. Adopting a bicycle is a statement that you value community, the environment, and yourself.
We size our bikes from the top of the seat tube to the middle of the bottom bracket, which we acknowledge is antiquated, but we hope you find helpful. You’ll have to test ride one to find which fits!
