Bicycle Heaven is the largest transportation museum in the world dedicated to bicycles.[2][3][4] The museum was founded by Craig Morrow and comprises his personal collection gathered over decades. It is located in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.

The museum is an active collection. The 650 m2 show room contains over 3,500 bicycles with an additional 27,000 in storage.[5] There are over 100,000 parts to keep the collection in repair.[6]

Bicycle Heaven maintains free entry by serving as a bike shop and consulting as prop agents for film, television and theatrical productions. After filming, the bicycles are returned and become part of the permanent collection.[7][8]
