What is BikeDoc's service model?

BikeDoc operates 24/7 emergency bike repair vending machines placed along traveled cycling routes throughout Houston, rather than a traditional brick-and-mortar shop. The machines stock high-quality repair tools and parts so cyclists can access supplies on the go without carrying bulky equipment.

What products and parts are available at BikeDoc vending machines?

BikeDoc machines stock inner tubes (Sunlite brand in multiple sizes from 26-inch to 29-inch), CO2 inflators and refills, multi-tools, patch kits (Park Tool brand), and tire levers (Pedro's brand, set of 2). Tubes are priced at $10, inflators at $20, and most other items at $5 each.

Where are BikeDoc vending machines located?

Current BikeDoc locations are at Bad Astronaut Brewing Co. (1519 Fulton St), D&W Lounge (911 Milby St), and Velvet Oak Tavern (2221 W Alabama St), all in Houston. The shop states more locations are coming soon.

Does BikeDoc offer any tube sizes for road or mountain bikes?

Yes. BikeDoc stocks Sunlite tubes in multiple ISO sizes including 700c options (for road bikes and hybrids in 18-23mm, 25-32mm, and 35-42mm widths) and 26-inch and 29-inch sizes (for mountain bikes), with both Presta and Schrader valve options available.
