A PLACE FOR ALL BIKE PEOPLE.

We are a bike shop and community space in downtown Indianapolis. Friendly sales, repair, custom builds, and a place to hang.

WHY BIKE PEOPLE?

Indianapolis is best experienced on a bike. It’s how we fell in love with the city and why we want to help get more butts on bikes. We aim to be the place you trust for bike needs and your go-to resource hub and connection point for all things cycling. We’re proud to be downtown Indy’s community bike shop.

We’re all bike people here.

Four children and two adults posing with bicycles in front of a colorful mural. One child is sitting in a bike trailer, and the others are standing beside their bikes. The mural features a large spray can with orange, black, and white designs, and the word 'JUNKING' in red. There are trees, flowers, and outdoor seating in the background.

SERVICE PACKAGES

Bike repair service is the heart of our little family business. We’re proud of our work, we deeply value our customers, and we believe our Google Reviews reflect that. To make things smoother for everyone, we now offer scheduled drop-off appointments. Choose a time online to bring your bike in, and we’ll briefly review it together before outlining next steps. Some repairs can be completed quickly, while others require a little more time — we’ll always communicate a clear timeline after assessment. We offer a range of friendly bicycle repair services. Choose one of our service packages (named for our favorite local Indy trails) or build your own from our wallet-friendly a la carte menu.
