Bike parts in abundance.
Our store is a paradise for DYI Bike mechanics
We collect and clean hundreds of bike parts on a weekly basis which we use ourselves but also sell at prices between $5 and $20
Get yourself a LOOP bike for $65
Loop bikes are bikes we rescued from a bike share company that went into administration.
They come with solid tires - never a flat tire - with 3 gears, a basket for your groceries or bag, and a solar panel for the lights.
You can test-ride them in our store where we also sell good quality hybrid, road, and mountain bikes from reputable brands.
You find us in Alexandria, 84 Burrows Rd Saturday 10-2 and Tuesday-Friday 10-5

@great_race_australia is a team-building company that runs corporate activities including the ever more popular Build A Bike program.
Today the Great Race team dropped off the first 7 bikes which they donate to us for our Kids program whereby kids` bikes are given away to those children who don`t have access to a bike.
When @bicyclensw asked us to partner with them for their annual giveaway we were immediately on board.
This step-through hybrid Norco VFR4 was the price for the winner: @abloodygreatcause. A foundation that is raising funds and advocating for the world-leading haematology clinical research at Concord Hospital.
Bloody Great Cause will now have this bike as top of the bill for their annual fundraising event later this year.
It`s great to see how giving new life to old rides can also help improve life for people and communities
In the 48 hrs between Bogusz`s arrival from Poland and starting a job in Sydney he managed to find us and buy this commuter bike. Listen to his story
A snippet of today`s online bike service training we organised for Auscycling`s Bikes for Schools program https://shorturl.at/otyN4.
This was a training for the teachers and students from the Thargomindah school in Outback Queensland where we delivered 50 kids bikes.
It`s another milestone for our "bike equity" mission to give all children access to a bike and show them how to service their bikes and keep them going for a bit longer.
Workshop Manager Sabrina`s pick of the week
"Here at Revolve, we`re not too humble for flashy bikes like this! Whilst it may look brand new, this totally unique Specialized Pitch is the love child of three separate bikes. Whilst the wheels and componentry were removed off brand new (but damaged) frames, the chassis itself was a bare-bones donation. Lovingly built up into a mean-looking hardtail by mechanics Anthony and Sabrina, the bike rides like a dream and could be yours today"

Today we successfully tested the settings for our first online bike training session with the Thargomindah school in outback Queensland where we delivered 50 kids bikes in early March.
More to come on Monday when the training will take place....
It’s great to be recognised by our peers in sustainability and waste minimisation at the annual Waste Conference in Coffs Harbour.
And like every good award recipient, it’s the right time to thank people: our team, our partners such as Councils and bike shops, folks who buy our redeployed bikes, folks who donate their old rides for new life…
We’re happy little ‘revolutionaries`!
Meet Jose who volunteers to revive and repair bikes to donate to children in need.
(And help him achieve this by donating $80 today)
You may have heard about our ‘bikes for kids’ donation program for disadvantaged children…
It’s only possible because of volunteers like Jose and our generous individual supporters who donate dollars and bikes to make it happen because they believe passionately that “every child deserves the joy of a bike!”
Jose has an office job by day where he spends most of his time in front of a computer screen.
After work he likes to get out, go on bike rides, play soccer with his local club … and also do some volunteer work for the community.
That’s how he ended up at Revolve ReCYCLING on Thursday evenings restoring and repairing children’s bikes which we then donate to kids in need.
“I’m really enjoying knowing that these bikes, which just weren’t being used, are going to schools and other places for kids to use, and will get so much fun out of them.
There are so many bikes just sitting in sheds not being used, or just being dumped on the streets. We can give these bikes a second life, keep them out of landfill, and give them to children who will really appreciate them
When I used to be a kid growing up in Argentina, a bike gave you so much freedom! I started riding to school in 2nd grade with my mum. But it wasn’t long before I started riding off after school with friends, having loads of fun!”
He now wants to make sure other kids, no matter what their background, can experience that same fun, and also the skills, responsibility and opportunity that go hand in hand with having a bike of one`s own.
Please donate here today: https://revolverecycling.net/wheels-for-kids/
