Functional Art, T-shirts, and Gift Items

We sell art made from recycled bike parts (cogs, sprockets, chains, etc.).

If your employer participates in the Universal Pass program but does not issue employee IDs, Commuter Connection is the only place to get a TriMet-approved photo ID for your pass. Photos are taken during regular store hours; no appointment is necessary and the process is fast and easy.
