FAQ

Who is the Bike Co-op for?

ANYONE AND EVERYONE. We are a safe space for anyone to come and enjoy the coop. Come on in with your bike and questions.

What does the Bike Co-op do?

We are a full service bike shop at UC Santa Cruz. We provide students an educational, low cost alternative to getting their bikes fixed. We take the time to explain how to easily and efficiently do maintenance on your bike. We ask customers to donate $1-5 for usage of our basic tools and $5-10 dollars for more specialized tools and assistance. Everything is marked down at a student discount, but anyone and everyone has access to our tools and products. If you are looking for normal service, drop your bike off for a work order. We do our service at a reduced student rate as well.

What forms of payment do you take? Do you have Venmo?

We do not have a Venmo. We can take payment in the form of cash, card, or touch-less payments.

Any sponsorships?

We sponsor the UCSC Bicycling Team (Slug Cycling) and provide other bike-related programs on campus access to our space and knowledge.

Does the Bike Co-op have any rental bikes? Is the Bike Co-op associated with the Bike Library?

We do not offer rentals, nor are we associated with the Bike Library. Please check out The Bike Library's website for more information about how they operate and how to rent a free bike for the quarter!

Where you at again?

We’re across the Bookstore in the Quarry Plaza, on the 2nd floor of the Redwood Buildings.
