We create fun, functional products from recycled bicycle parts. We collect tons of discarded bicycle parts every year from bike shops all over the United States. Then our team of artists tinkers with them until new products are born. We call this Resource Revival!
The idea for Resource Revival came to Graham Bergh in 1991 when he got a flat tire biking to his recycling job in Portland, Oregon. In the years since we have grown slowly and steadily with the help of dozens of artists and recyclers. Today Graham is still actively involved in new product development and customer service, as is Jim Hassert, artist and philosopher, who joined Resource Revival in 2002. Let us know what we can do for you!
All of our recycled products are unique and original designs, the result of 15+ years of constant innovation and refinement; and they are made by real people, not mass produced, whether we are welding Bike Chain Bowls in our Mosier, Oregon, studio, or working with Opportunity Connection, an organization in Hood River, Oregon, that provides jobs for developmentally disabled adults.
Instead of rambling on about who we are and what we do we thought you'd enjoy this video produced by the good folks at New Belgium Brewing company as part of their Follow Your Folly celebration of innovators and environmental crusaders. Cheers! Graham & Jim
