The Bend Bike Swap, now in its 10th year, is a benefit for Bend Endurance Academy, a non-profit organization that teaches kids the joy of endurance sports.

Created by Ryan McGlone from Boneyard Cycling, the Bend Bike Swap began as a way to give back to the local community. Ryan brought together volunteers from the Boneyard Team, local bike shops and the cycling community for three days of bikes, bike gear, and cycling enthusiasm. Funds raised were donated to local nonprofits..

Since 2017, the Bend Bike Swap has been organized by the Bend Endurance Academy and hosted by Thump Coffee in Northwest Crossing. The Bend Endurance Academy continues the tradition of offering an assortment of gear for mountain biking, road cycling, gravel, and cyclocross while making customer service a high priority. Sponsorship support helps underwrite the cost of producing the event. Please consider joining our family of sponsors this year! Proceeds from the event will be directed towards our Facilities Campaign.

ONLINE REGISTRATION OPENS FEB 15, 2023 & CLOSES APRIL 17, 2023

COMMISSION RATE

Our commission structure is meant to encourage more participation and increase selection! By capping the amount, anything sold for more than $1,500 will be charged a flat-rate so it’s a very competitive way to sell your bike and makes for better deals to the buyers. All the while, as the event grows, it becomes a more meaningful fundraiser for the Bend Endurance Academy’s programs!

Commission rate is 22% of the final sale price per item, up to a maximum of $320 per item.
Items sold for $1,500 or more will be charged a flat rate commission of $320.
Payment, less the commission, will be provided to Consignor by mail only within 14 days of sale.
BEND ENDURANCE ACADEMY AND EVENT VOLUNTEERS ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR LOST, DAMAGED, OR STOLEN ITEMS.
