This is our new “sign”, perched on the fence to help you find us. While it looks like a good bike, it’s surprisingly heavy, and even though it was made by Kennedy, K-Mart bikes are lighter :)What we do

We have just unpacked 2 new Buddy Bikes. One for a customer, and one for a demonstrator (until we sell it).
The Buddy Bike is a tandem that is ideally suited for an adult and child to ride. Unlike a normal tandem, the child sits up front, and the wraparound bars mean that the adult basically has their arms around the child at all times, and It’s easy to talk while riding.
The Buddy Bike is popular with parents of special needs kids.
The Port Phillip Specialist school in Port Melbourne have a fleet of around 60 bikes, many of which are three wheelers like this one. JCAAA provided funding for us to service them, and we fix up 3 or 4 of them each week.
The kids are very excited about having their bikes ridable again, and give us a hearty welcome when we turn up with the week’s bikes.
They scoot around the school yard at breakneck speeds – I guess the bikes give them the freedom to do that.
