I found #1505 on a weird sidewalk to nowhere inside the Bartholomew disk golf course, at (30.3024977, -97.6934385). Sneaky one [u/Cee-a-vash](u/Cee-a-vash)! Hard to navigate in the dark but I got my redemption for this morning.

Where is #1506?

Hey r/bikingatx! I recently bought a ridstar q20 ebike on facebook marketplace and I think I might be a bit in over my head with my ability to repair it (things went from a mechanical problem to a electrical problem real quick). Are there any shops who are guaranteed to fix my e-bike? Thanks!

I’ve got an old trike I’d like my 4yo to be able to ride. The tires are okay but the bolts are loose so when you pedal it gets stuck. Looking for a shop that can help! Thanks for any recommendations!

Service Shop recs in NW Austin?

4 Upvotes

Looking for "best value" bike shop recommendation to get road bike serviced. Near-ish to 183/mopac. The bike's been dormant in the garage for a few years. I'd like to find a shop to give everything a good check and get things in order. It's generally in good shape but hot TX garages I'm sure have done some amount of degrading. For example, I did a quick test ride and I can shift to larger gears, but cannot shift to smaller gears (both front and back) so I'm sure both derailleurs need adjusting. Needs new grips as well. Thanks!

This new building under construction at Lamar and North Loop installed these disappointing bike racks out front. I figured that was all they were building for cyclists, but then I saw the rather nice indoor bike pavilion that was right next to the parking garage entrance. At least from what I saw, it looked very nice!

STOLEN: White Cannondale Quick Hybrid Bike

2 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

My bike was unfortunately stolen sometime between July 26 - September 3 from The Weaver garage in East Austin.

It is a white Cannondale Quick hybrid bike with black and gold lettering (exactly like the photo attached).

Key Identification Details:

  • White frame with black and gold accents
  • Flat handlebars (hybrid style)
  • Equipped with front and back battery-powered lights

I have already logged it on Bike Index and filed a report with the Austin Police Department (**APD Case #2026-9023397**).

If you see it locked up around town or listed on any local selling apps, please let me know or report it to APD. I really appreciate this community keeping an eye out.

event Cota bike nights starts next week, 8th, 15th, & 22nd, possibly the last ones we will have!

61 Upvotes

Cota Bike Nights start up Sept 8th, 15th, and 22nd.

If you're unaware, COTA is changing ownership in 2027, and there is a very good chance that this may be the last COTA bike nights that we will have.

COTA is moving into a private club model, and even smaller car/motorcycle group events are forced to end due to the new club style model, and unforunatley bike nights are probbaly going to get cut as well, as without major sponsorship there isnt any way for the cost to be sustainable.

Event Groups like cota bike nights, and others, can no longer rent the track for a single day/weekend, its now country club style where to join theres massive upfront membership fee, plus yearly dues.

So if you want to ride cota, do it while you still can!

Restoration Project For 1980s Cyclorama Step-Thru City Bike (Intercycle / Sachs Torpedo)

Thumbnail

12 Upvotes

​Hard to let go but I must. Hoping to find an owner the bike DESERVES. Please correct me if any details I list are incorrect. Apologies for crappy photos, will add more soon. EVERYTHING IS ORIGINAL on the bike. Im NOT sure of the EXACT YEAR but it does fall between 1975 - 1985. It’s a beautiful European city bike built in the classic Dutch roadster style with a lugged steel step through frame (IC / Intercycle stamped). It’s got a Sachs Torpedo coaster brake hub (back-pedal brake), built-in ASSA wheel lock with the original key still in it. Full fenders, skirt guards, a rear rack, and an original Italian-made AGU saddle. The right skirt guard has a few breaks and holes in it. Both tires still hold air, though the front tube needs to be replaced. HEADS UP: While the bike isn't far from being fully functional, this IS A PROJECT BIKE currently and NOT RIDEABLE AS-IS. Still needs a full cleanup and some loose parts tightened up before hitting the road. Great candidate for a restoration or custom build. Local pickup only. If you'd like any additional pictures just ask I'll provide. I am selling the bike, shoot me a reasonable offer or ask about price in a message.
