Community Cycles is a collective of bicycle enthusiasts whose mission is to educate and advocate the safe use of refurbished bicycles as an affordable and sustainable means of transportation and personal enjoyment. Community Cycles repairs donated bikes, utilizing them locally and internationally, in teaching programs, to help anyone earn a bike as a means of transport and recreation.
The "Earn-A-Bike" Program allows people to pick and customize a bike of their own after 15 hours of shop time and instruction with volunteer mechanics. Community Cycles works with Spokes Community Bicycle Project to send bikes abroad to countries that don't have access to them through the"Bikes Abroad" program. Their first shipment of 450 bikes went to Ghana Africa in November 2006. During the summer, Community Cycles partners with Naropa Bike Shack to set up "Rolling Bike Clinics", in which they train community members and then leave behind bike repair stations for the use of the neighborhood. Community Cycles also gives away bikes to low income families and individuals throughout the year and sells refurbished commuter style bikes at affordable prices.

Sean Bragstad and Peter Chisholm, both local, long term Boulder bicycle mechanics, decided that Boulder needed a bicycle shop that specialized in service and repair. This unique concept distinguishes Vecchio's from other shops, where their service department is an afterthought. Our work area, however, is the centerpiece of our store. You're welcome to watch us fix your machine, ask questions about the work we're doing or have a cup of coffee while enjoying a cycling video in our customer lounge.
The Vecchio's Performance Center is an extension of the highly renowned bike shop. The same commitment to service while providing top of the line products is present in the Performance Center. Operated by long time bicycle racer and cycling coach Jon Tarkington, it is the ideal place where customers can explore ways to improve their performance on their bicycles. The center carries ALL of the leading power meters. You can also find products from Computrainer, Compex, Garmin, Cycling Peaks and Arkray.
