About us
We are a Glasgow based charity that recycles bicycles from a variety of local sources and promotes safe cycling in town. Refurbished donated bikes and re-usable parts will be sold in the shop. All other parts such as steel, aluminum, alloys, rubber etc will be dismantled for scrap. It also offers bicycle related training and advice to local communities such as puncture repair, bike maintenance and cycle training. Our Fix Your Own Bike workshop space will be available to customers twice a week providing access to work stands and tools which enables them to repair their own bikes with assistance from volunteers and mechanics. The project is committed to refurbishing donated bikes, repairing customer’s bikes & selling re-usable parts.
