Every Bike Purchased = bikes Donated.
When you buy a second hand bike from upCYCLE LDN, you don't just get a carefully restored ride, you put one in the hands of someone who needs it most. That's our Bike for Bikes promise.
How it works
Every refurbished bike you purchase directly funds the restoration and donation of another bike to a person in our community who couldn't otherwise afford one, whether that's a young person getting to school, a parent learning to ride with their children, or someone building their independence.
Why Bike for Bike?
Access to transport changes lives. It opens up job opportunities, reduces isolation, and cuts carbon at the same time. But for too many Londoners, owning a working bike simply isn't an option.
Your purchase changes that. Every time.
The upCYCLE difference
Our bikes aren't mass-produced, they're given a second life by our community workshop team. When you shop here, you're supporting skilled training, sustainable repair, and a circular economy that keeps bikes out of landfill and on London's streets where they belong.
NEW MERCH!
Screen printed on heavyweight 200 GSM crew neck t-shirts, in bold colours, these tees are made to last long and be worn proudly.
Designed by our long-time collaborator Peon, this latest piece pays tribute to old-school bike couriers, Lambeth landmarks, and the community that keeps our wheels turning.
More than just a t-shirt, this design represents upCYCLE LDN out in the world. Every shirt worn helps spread the word about what we do, the people we support, and the culture we’ve built together.
Every penny raised goes directly back into our programmes at the Hub, helping us keep creating opportunities, supporting riders, and building community.
3 years after our last drop, the new upCYCLE LDN tee is finally here. This time round, we wanted to rep the best borough in London, whilst paying homage to cycling heritage. That’s why we’ve merged 90s NYC bike courier cool with world famous Lambeth landmarks.
Available in black or white and screen printed on high quality material, these are built to last so you can spread the word of upCYCLE LDN for years to come. All money raised goes towards running youth programmes at our Hub.
