DON'T FORGET TO EXPLORE BIKE WALK WICHITA
A COMMUNITY BIKE SHOP BUILT WITH WRENCHES AND RADICAL COMPASSION
We operate on a simple concept: All people should have access to bikes and the tools to keep them going.
We love to share our knowledge of bicycle mechanics and safety, and want it known that a stand is here for you if you're willing to pick up a wrench and learn with us.

Absolutely! We love helping people stay moving.
But there's a catch: We don't do the work for you, we do the work with you.
We'll show you how to do it, and then you will have all the time and support to accomplish your repair and will leave knowing how to do it next time.Usage of the stands and tools is free of charge, but it does take money to operate our program and support our community.
Please consider donating when you can if you use the shop and know we're glad to have you here all the same.No, we do not do any bike or parts trades.
However, we have a no-cost volunteer credit system, where each hour volunteered equals $5 in-shop credit. Meaning, you can simply trade completed volunteer hours for the parts you need while helping our program and community.
