Refurbished Used Bicycles

Thousands of RCS customers have enjoyed "buying used" over the years, so in addition to its focus on bicycle repairs, Recycled Cycles sometimes has a small number of used bicycles with "bike shop" brands available. All used bikes are cleaned, inspected, adjusted and refurbished.
 

Road Bikes

LIGHTWEIGHT, NARROW TIRES, DOWNTURN HANDLEBARS
Road bikes are designed to be ridden on hard surfaces. They can be used on the Katy and similar recreational trails, but their performance-oriented features can be a drawback in these environments. Road bikes include sport, racing and triathlon models. All bikes can be customized to buyers' needs. (Listings with a "RETRO" tag include classic older models made during the 1970s and '80s.)

Off-Road Bikes

STURDY CONSTRUCTION, WIDE TIRES, UPRIGHT HANDLEBARS
Off-road bikes are user-friendly vehicles that stand up to dirt conditions with strong brakes and wide gearing, but also work for short road rides. Advances in materials, equipment and suspension technology have expanded choices in this category to include mountain bikes, cyclocross bikes and gravel bikes. All selections can be customized to buyers' needs.  [ Top of Page ]

Hybrid/Comfort Bikes

EASY RIDERS, WIDER TIRES, UPRIGHT HANDLEBARS
Comfort bikes are well-suited to short, casual rides on recreational trails or roads. They have upright bars, wide tires, wide saddles and wide gear ranges. Most comfort bikes also have suspension features. Hybrids are a related category of upright bike. Often lacking suspension, they are lighter than comfort bikes and offer greater on-road performance.  [ Top of Page ]
