History

Once upon a time, dinosaurs ruled the Earth. Eventually they died and turned into oil - which humanity has decided to refine, burn, crack (thank you free-radical chemistry), and otherwise form into interesting monomers and polymers. Some humans decided these petroleum products should be used for lubricating their chains and bottom brackets; which has (among many other causes) ultimately led to the formation of the Bike Lab.

Also once upon a time, Caltech had an active bike racing and triathlon club. The racers graduated away, the tools remained, and we decided to make ourselves into more of a cooperative.

Services Offered

1. A DIY shop is available for members of Caltech and JPL. 2. We host "office hours" where members of Caltech and JPL can come by and get repair assistance. 3. We host repair classes that are open to the general community. 4. We host group rides that are often open to the community as well. 5. Occasionally we do advocacy. 6. Cat worship.
