row of bicycles for sale

SVBE is over capacity, and we need to clear space in our shop. This sale will feature a wide selection of refurbished used bikes, including road bikes, mountain bikes, gravel bikes, vintage bikes, hybrids, commuter bikes and kids’ bikes. Brands include Trek, Specialized, Giant, Cannondale, Diamondback, Gary Fisher, Raleigh and more. All refurbished bikes will come with a 30-day mechanical warranty, with some bikes priced as low as $150.

This sale will focus primarily on ready-to-ride bicycles. There will also be a limited selection of used cycling gear, including wheels and some clothing items. A larger bike swap-style sale with more accessories and components will take place on April 27. As always, new helmets, locks, and lights will be available for purchase with any bike.

Some of the bikes available at the sale are already listed online. Cash and credit cards will be accepted and California sales tax will apply. Volunteers will be on hand to assist with bike sizing. Test rides are encouraged, so bring a helmet if you plan to try out a bike.

No early birds. Arrive earlier in the day for the best selection. Spread the word and mark your calendar!
