Recycling
We don’t sell new bikes, apart from some special needs bikes, which local bike shops don’t usually offer, as they are too low volume for them. But we are recycling old bikes.

Our mission
We are incorporated as an Australian company, limited by Guarantee. This means that any profit we make is reinvested back into the business, and we don’t pay tax on it. There are no directors fees or profit distributions.
We charge for services, but at a level below normal bike shops. We will provide free bikes to other charitable organisations, and bikes/servicing at further reduced pricing to health care card holders.
