			'''{{PAGENAME}}''' was a free, non-profit, all volunteer, collectively run community bicycle shop on the west side of Denver. The shop was open to everyone, but prioritized people from the neighborhood and those with few options.

			After the Collective disbanded, it passed remaining bikes/tools/curriculum/hardware/etc. to several different organizations in Denver, including The Bike Pit, El Centro Humanitario, and [[Bikes Together]] (formerly Park Hill Bike Depot). Derailer skills and values live on at Bikes Together; mechanics classes, GEM Night, and many other Derailer innovations were introduced to Bikes Together after the closure of the Collective.
