Ride Ready Repair Services

All communities need affordable, accessible, safe, and reliable transportation to and from the workplace, school, medical appointments, and everyday errands. SABA's Ride Ready bike repair programs help ensure that everyone can access free skills training, bike safety, and repair services regardless of who they are or where they came from.
Ride Ready Repairs

The costs associated with taking your bike to a local bike shop for even basic repairs are beyond the economic means of many of our citizens. To eliminate this obstacle, SABA works with elected officials and community leaders to identify historically underrepresented and marginalized communities.
SABA’s professional mechanics support these communities in high-injury transportation corridors with hands-on education, youth mentoring, and professional bike repair. We operate our free "pop-up" repair clinics in residential and business complexes, schools, parks, and at various community events. This past year, we made over 2,000 bicycles ride-ready at over 200 events.

Ride Ready Education
Many community leaders have asked us to help them envision, plan, create, and operate community-run, not-for-profit bike centers. In addition to consulting on location, shop layout, inventory, and management, SABA has developed a training program for the initial group of community mechanics.

He also gave my bike a thorough look-over, tightened the rack, lubricated fittings, and brought to my attention I should replace the left derailleur soon. On top of that, Mike replaced the worn-out grips, which I thought was above-and-beyond. My experience was first-rate, and much appreciated, as I rely on my bike to for everything from getting to work and doctor’s appointments, grocery shopping and laundry runs. SABA has been an invaluable resource and support system for me. Thank you!"
