Adaptive BIKETOWN is a partnership between Nike, Portland Bureau of Transportation (PBOT) and Nomad Cycles PDX, providing adaptive bike rentals for those who are living with a disability or who can’t ride the traditional 2-wheeled BIKETOWN e-bikes. Adaptive BIKETOWN is funded by the Portland Clean Energy Community Benefit Fund (PCEF).

All bodies on bikes

We begin every engagement by listening, ensuring that each individual has a tailored experience. We offer various trikes, recumbents, tandems and standard bikes to be fitted, tried and tested in order to find what suits you best. Stop by during operation hours or make an appointment any time to come and rent any of our fleet vehicles. First time fitting can take anywhere from 30 minutes to an hour so if this is your first time or you want to ride a different bike then you normally have, you are welcome to call ahead of time to check on the shops availability. The bikes can then be ridden on the Esplanade trail, a small circuit that peacefully travels along the Portland waterfront or ridden throughout the city if you so choose, the adventure is yours to make. When you go to Adaptive at OMSI you will see signs for OMSI parking and signs for Building B. Once you get to Adaptive BIKETOWN the entrance to the shop is on the waterfront side (west side) of the big red barn looking building.

All Wheels Welcome

We welcome all kinds of individuals with open arms.

Come ride with us and enjoy a fantastical journey by bike.

All of your dreams of riding come true with Adaptive BIKETOWN and Nomad Cycles.
