Bike Stop Ecuador has arranged a program to help children in the community ride bicycles to school.

The kids who go to this school come from low income families and receive bicycles from government and private institutions and charities.

Bike Stop mechanics deliver the bicycles to the school to teach the children how to use and maintain the bikes.

From the pictures it looks like these children are having a great time riding to school.

At about 23 lbs., it came with all the latest Shimano technology available. 6-Speed SIS Shimano Index Shifting, Bio-Pace chainrings and SLR Aero brake levers. The bicycle was also spec’d with an alloy quill stem and alloy pedals. Clipless pedals were just starting to take over the market but total domination from Look/Time/Mavic/Shimano was still a few years away.
