Bicycle Heaven, Transport museum in Pittsburgh, United States
Bicycle Heaven is a transport museum in Pittsburgh displaying nearly 6,000 bicycles ranging from antique models to modern designs, along with tools, parts, and cycling accessories arranged in organized sections. The collection spans different eras and styles, showing how bicycles have evolved.
Craig Morrow founded Bicycle Heaven in 1996 after discovering a discarded bicycle, later developing it into a formal museum in 2011. This growth shows how a personal passion transformed into a major public institution.
The collection features bicycles that appeared in major films like A Beautiful Mind and Fences, showing how cycling has been woven into American cinema. Visitors can see the connection between everyday objects and celebrated movie productions.
The location features free parking and is open daily for visitors. You will find repair services, bike rentals, and parts sales available on-site.
The museum houses 17 Bowden Spacelanders, representing more than half of these rare fiberglass bicycles, with only about 30 known to exist worldwide. This makes the location a crucial repository for a remarkable chapter in bicycle history.
