Need A Bike Or Part? Try "All Bikes" Salvage
✖ |
Two acres of memories and toys – for children and adults – break up the desert landscape along Highway 87 in rural Payson, Ariz. Ron Adler, owner of All Bikes salvage yard, caters to people seeking parts for all kinds of 2 and 3-wheel bikes, from Honda to Harley motorcycles, to 3-wheel ATV’s and bicycles.
It all started with his bicycle shop in Washington in 1970, where he also sold motorcycles and did repair work. In 1988, Adler moved his collection to Arizona. The scrap yard soon started growing rapidly.
“We ship all over the world,” Adler says, noting his collection includes motorized bikes from around the world. He also has new models, such as those he purchased from a Harley-Davidson dealership that sold out.
The sight of old 3-wheelers attracts those nostalgic for the old ATV’s. But his non-motorized bikes are also a big draw.
“People are surprised to find their childhood bikes,” Adler says. One mother described her Schwinn bicycle that had been inadvertently sold at a yard sale when she was a girl. He had the same one in stock – baby blue with butterflies and daisies on the seat. She cried.
“I have bicycles from as far back as the 1800’s,” Adler adds. His oldest motorcycle was made in 1915.
A personal favorite in his own collection is an Adler motorcycle from 1954, the year he was born.
Many customers come to duplicate good memories for their children. For example, one father bought a motorcycle he had as a youngster – a Yamaha GT 80 – for his son.
Adler continues to collect and add to his yard. He welcomes customers from around the world looking for that special bike or parts to fix one they have. Customers can also call, Wednesday through Sunday from 9 to 5, and Adler or an employee will check out the inventory to see if it’s available.
“I am always interested in hearing from people who find old bikes and motorbikes in their barns or sheds,” Adler adds.
