Cycletastic 2026
The Cycletastic Community bike shed was established in 2010 with a London Cycle Campaign community bike fund. Cycletastic is a volunteer led, bike repair project . The Project was originally set up in Kilburn alongside a Healthy neighbourhoods transformation to the Brent Eleven Streets area . Cycletastic volunteers recycle pre loved bikes back to the community and offer basic bike repair whilst you get hands on and learn how to. Cycletastic also offer bike riding training for all ages when funding allows .
The shed opens on first and last Saturday afternoons during the warmer months so that you can drop in and repair your own bike using our tools and parts. Please check Instagram :cycletasticfixlearnride for updates. Cycletastic can help you learn basic bike mechanics so that you can save money and become a self sufficient bike owner. We have a tool and parts resource and welcome anyone to the shed on Saturday afternoons that needs bike help.
Cycletastic offers Learn To Fix sessions to beginners and intermediates.
We help you keep your bike rolling and roadworthy offering you the help of skilled mechanics to fix your bike with you . We can assemble and safety check your new bike with you also.
We have second hand and new bike parts for sale and sell second hand bikes. We welcome your unused/ bike donations to help us to continue to offer this from the shed.
We have a face book and instagram page : cycletasticfixlearnride . We update the instagram page as often as possible to keep you in contact with what is happening at the project and in the local and wider London area.
