    id have to agree.

    not quite sure. although they have good used stuff and free tools. there good if you need a quick fix up. other than that they wanted 3 bucks to take my freewheel off.

    they've always been really cool to me, and they do a lot of great stuff for the community.

    its a non profit. they do serve the community with their classes and giving away free bikes to those in need, which is great. however i don't feel like their actual shop is doing any service to the community with its high prices and less than pleasant staff.

    My company makes their employees volunteer once per year and CCC was one of the choices. Should be interesting...

    It was a pretty cool time-there were 20 of us or so and I wrenched on the little children's bikes.
