Public Bicycle Repair Stations in the East Bay
These bike stands, pumps, and tools are all available for public use. Unfortunately, sometimes these repair stations are vandalized so some of them have broken pumps or missing tools. Please click on a location on this map to see the most recent update, and encourage community members in your area to treat these valuable resources with respect and care.
If you have an update on the condition of one of these repair stations, or are aware of one that is not yet on our map, please let us know!
BikeMobile
The BikeMobile is a free, mobile bike repair service that is available for events in both Alameda and Contra Costa Counties. To see their full schedule or request a BikeMobile visit for your community event, go to BikeMobile.org. Free fix-a-flat or other basic bike maintenance workshops can also be provided on site to youth and adults.
