The Fort Collins Bike Co-op exceeded my expectations in every way. The highest quality of service in a non profit that I have ever experienced. Ben and the staff that worked there went beyond and helped me fix many problems on my bike within the space of an hour. I not only solved the problems I went in to fix like a busted crank ring and a new lefthand grip shifter, but did my brakes, and trued a wheel. You can either work with a mechanic for the donation of only $10/hour and very cheap costing, high quality used parts, or trade the time worked on the bike for an equal amount of time working at the co-op, which you can often do the same day! Awesome service and I hope it stays around for many years. They also have a select few used bicycles for sale that you know were fixed and function right. The hours they are open and you can drop by are: Wednesday 2pm to 5pm Thursday: 2pm to 5pm Friday: 12pm to 5pm

Unlike Recycled Cycles, the Co-op used parts-bin is not open to the public to browse through. Customers are served on a first come first served basis. If you have a quick part you need, it is best to come back at a time when there is not a line of customers waiting to be served. Everyone has the opportunity to volunteer time helping in the shop or can make a suggested donation in exchange for parts. If you do not like the parts that are available you are under no obligation. I have had very positive experiences at the Co-op!

Awesome place!! Went in today and fixed up a bike for myself from the "as-is" bikes. I liked that you work with the volunteer mechanic yourself and can learn about your bike and how to take care of it. Got a great deal, all used parts are super cheap and even went home with a bike rack for my car. Highly recommend this place for repairs, purchasing a bike, or whatever else you need bike related. Wonderful staff.

Each time I have been into the co-op I have had a great experience. The mechanics are helpful and the best part is you get to help fix your bike and you get totally filthy in the process! Their new location is well lit and it seems easier to get around and find parts. Oh and also you end up paying about 1/3 the price of a regular bike shop. Love this place and I would highly recommend it.

Great customer service! The owner and another man were amazingly patient and gracious as they taught my daughter and me how to maintain our bikes. We were even able to get new helmets that fit well at a reasonable price. What a great resource for the community!

Awesome place to build or fix your bike. Friendly people. The people who help you build/fix are Volunteers. It is a non profit organization. You get bike accessories at a lower place than other private stores. FoCo Bike Coop: you guys are doing a great Job. :)

This place embodies what bikes are all about. People here are amazingly helpful and knowledgeable. The prices are very affordable. If you bike in this town at all, check out the co-op whenever you get the chance

Love this place! Justin, Dondi and all the other staff/volunteers are awesome here. Great prices too. This is my #1 stop for everything bike related. Even got an awesome deal on a refurbished Nishiki here <3

Just exactly what I hope for in a shop offering used parts and space to work - organized, knowledgeable staff, space to move around, great prices! I love the new space and will return often.

Great organization, great people. They helped me replace a broken front derailleur on my old cross bike -- actually Jeff did most of the work! Thanks much!!

An excellent place to find economical refurbished bicycles and parts if you can make it there while they are open.

Would highly recommend! They help you understand how your bike works without nickle and diming you.
