We really care about the impact that everything we do has on the natural world. Inner tubes are collected & sent away for a second life as raw materials for African art. All metal components are recycled. Lubricants & cleaning are chosen on the basis of their ability to biodegrade safely. We are now partnered with Velorim for the environmental disposal of tyre carcasses. We like to encourage people to bring their bikes to us (by riding them!) where possible to minimise fossil fuel usage. Cycling is quite low on its carbon footprint, but there are always ways to improve & we constantly research them. One of the best ways is to repair rather than replace!
