The New Bike Loan Program from Unitus
A good bike can be many things – transportation, recreation, total elation. And also a big chunk of change. But if you live in the Portland area, getting a Sweetpea just got a little easier with the new Bike Loan program from Unitus Community Credit Union.
Much like getting a loan for a car, you can now get a loan for up to $2500 towards a custom Sweetpea Bicycle. The details are here, but instead of a couple big payments, you get to spread it out over the course of a year. Our hope is that by participating in this program, it will be easier for you to get your dream bike. (To see a little press about the Bike Loan Program, click here.)

This is really cool, from both the perspective of cyclists looking for a custom bike and frame builders like yourself! Hopefully this is but the first of a growing trend.
I hope so! I think it is a brilliant idea, and really hope that it helps get more people on the road, whether its on a Sweetpea or something else.
This is a great program. Part of getting more people on bikes, is being able to provide quality equipment at affordable prices. I’d love to see this program take off and become a national promotion.
