.. and from what we've experienced here in Vancouver is not only the gentrification of spaces with bike lanes (sadly), is also the affluent, white, aging out neighbourhoods fighting bike routes and lanes in their very upscale properties. The common tag line is " bike lanes bring crime into our community " for no real reason. No imperical data to support this.
on the other hand there is lots of data regarding white bike lanes contributing to gentrifying communities with many different access barriers.

... not science articles, but some first hand experience from people living gentrification.
Melody Hoffman's book would be a great addition to a library on the topic of social equity and cycling!

Has anyone read this academic work? http://www.nebraskapress.unl.edu/university-of-nebraska- press/9780803276789/
Would you recommend it for a bike co-op's library, or for a non-planning-scholar person to buy & read?
