Can I buy a bike here?
Adult bicycles are for sale at The Hub of Detroit. Youth between the ages of ten and eighteen can earn a bicycle through our YEAB  program. Children under ten years old can receive a free bicycle their size at Back Alley Bikes! All free bikes are limited to one per year, per youth.

Are your programs free?
Well, that depends on the program. All of our youth programming is free and our adult programs are generally donation-based and inexpen- sive. If youth are accepted into our Mechanics in Training program, it’s not only free – we pay them!

That’s right, if you’re between the ages of fourteen and eighteen, you could be paid to learn how to repair bicycles!

Is my child too young?
Children under ten are too young for most of our programs but can receive one free bike per year until they are old enough to attend.

They can also accompany a volunteering parent or guardian (adult must have completed an orientation with us) to our All Ages Volunteer Night, Thursdays 5-8pm.
