Bikechain is a do-it-yourself bike shop located on the University of Toronto's St. George campus. We teach you how to fix your own bike, no prior experience or skills needed! Use of the space is free for UofT students, and pay-what-you-can for everybody else. We offer free bicycle lending for UofT students, and do various workshops and events. We are a not-for-profit organization, so we love our volunteers, and always accept donations of parts and bicycles!

Last Friday we said goodbye to our superstar Canada Summer Jobs staff, Al and Max!!
Al and Max worked with us full time starting in May, and were a warm and inviting presence throughout our busiest season.
Now they're headed off on a joint bikepacking trip to celebrate the end of their season at Bikechain.
Thank you to both of you for being such stellar teaching mechanics, and enjoy your trip!
