  • Outstanding, amazing, jaw-droppingly so. There aren't enough words to describe the immediate response the eyes and jaw experience when opening the door to this bike museum/store/repair shop. I'd heard of it, even seen a few pics but that alone can't prepare you for the experience in person. First of all, it's conveniently located near the Great Allegheny Passage (GAP) rail trail off the jail trail on the North side. You'll see signs for it on and off the trail leading you right to it. This venue has only been open since 2011 but the owner, Craig Morrow. has been collecting for decades and he was on-site for this visit. He chatted with us and offered up answers to questions in such a non-assuming manner. He seems rather modest for the massive collection on display. Everywhere you look on several floors are bikes and bike parts, the bike parts neatly arranged along walls or ceilings, plus some collections not even bike related. There's a psychedelic room with a glow-in-the-dark bicycle and music that plays when you enter the room. There's a train track that runs above your head; there's a bobble head case; there are banana seat bikes with streamers, motorized bikes, one tandem bike that I saw, tricycles, a pinball machine actually used in the "Happy Days" TV show, Schwinn bicycles galore with the famous "S" bicycle seats. The bikes that stood out the most for me were the Bowden Spacelanders with values up to $48,000 at this posting. They looked very unusual and futuristic, something that could have been in the "Jetsons" tv show. Only so many were made and Mr. Morrow has many. Some of these bicycles on display have price tags on them, ready to be purchased. This is definitely a unique museum and a true find in Pittsburgh. Admission is based on donations. There's a donation box at the front door. P.S. Per Craig, it's open every day except Christmas because a lot of out-of-towners come and when do they come? Holidays.
