Reading Bike Hub Information

Reading Bike Hub: Empowering Reading, one cycle at a time At Reading Bike Hub CIC, we believe that cycling in Reading should be easy, accessible and joyful for everyone — whether you’re a commuter squeezing in some exercise, a parent on the school run, or a senior rediscovering the freedom of the e-bike. Reading is a town built for short journeys. Most places are just a 15-minute cycle away. But despite this, too many people are held back by the barriers: confusion over which bike to buy, lack of safe cycling routes, difficulty maintaining a bike or the cost of making the wrong choice. That’s where we come in. 🚴♀️ What We (Want to) Do Affordable Repairs & Skill-Building From quick fixes by our mechanics to guided DIY repair sessions using our tools, we make bike maintenance affordable and empowering. Refurbished Bike Sales We give old bikes new life — offering low-cost, quality bikes for anyone needing reliable transport on a budget. A Home for the Cycling Community We're more than a workshop. We’re a space for collaboration between local cycling groups, a place to share ideas, get support, and build a greener, healthier Reading.
