Catch a bus to CANBERRA BUYCYCLE and ride home! Here’s a link to ACTION’s timetable.
CANBERRA BUYCYCLE is an initiative of the Rotary Club of Canberra. It is an exciting bicycle market held annually in OCTOBER, where you can sell and buy pre-loved bicycles for a great price. Take a look at this video and see what we mean.
Our next CANBERRA BUYCYCLE will be held at THE FITTERS WORKSHOP (next to Bus Depot Markets), KINGSTON FORESHORE from 9am on SUNDAY 16 OCTOBER 2022.
DONATE A BIKE
CANBERRA BUYCYCLE presents you with the opportunity to sell or donate bikes that are probably cluttering up your garage and to turn those unwanted bikes into cash or even upgrade to another.
If you would like to donate a bike to Rotary, all you have to do is bring it along to The Fitters Workshop on SATURDAY (15 OCT) between 11am and 4pm. Unfortunately, we cannot accept bikes that are unroadworthy (or bike parts), so brakes and gears do need to be in working order. That said, we don’t mind bikes with the odd flat tyre (or two), they just need to be rideable.
Finally, if you are going to donate a bike we’d appreciate if you could send us an email to canberrarotary@iinet.net.au advising of your intention to do so. This assists us with our event planning, so we know how many bike racks to set up and so forth. An email from intending donors is not essential, but it is helpful.
If you would like to sell a bike, scroll up to the ‘SELL YOUR BIKE’ section.
If you want to sell your bike, it STARTS HERE! List your bike(s) online NOW, before dropping them off at The Fitters Workshop on Saturday 19 October 2019, between 11am-4pm. Alternatively, you can register your bike for sale when you drop it off, but you may experience delays, so pre-registering online is strongly recommended. It costs just $5 per bike to register each bike for sale (non-refundable), with 15% of the sale price going to Rotary. You can pay via PayPal or use your credit card.
Should you experience any problems listing your bike for sale, email canberrarotary@iinet.com.au and we’ll get back to you as quick as we can.
Complete as many fields as you can and if you wish, post a pic of your bike to attract potential buyers. After all, the more a buyer knows about your bike, the quicker it will sell. That said, if you can’t complete all the fields, that’s okay, as it will still make your bike drop-off much speedier. Alternatively, just bring your bike(s) into ‘Fitters’ on Saturday (between 11am-4pm) and you can register them in person.
When deciding how much you want to sell your bike for consider: how much you paid for it; its age and condition; and also how keen you are to sell it. Bottom line…be realistic! Don’t be a dreamer…no one will buy over-priced bikes. Suggested Pricing Guidelines
Experience tells us that Buycycle is the perfect market for bikes priced between $100 and $800. We successfully sell around 80% of bikes in this price range.
Still unsure? We hope to have some volunteer “experts” at our disposal who can advise you when you drop it off. Just ask to see if there is someone around who can help. If we spot a bike that we consider to be “unsafe” we will mark it as “Unrideable” on the sale documentation. These bikes can still be sold, but buyers will understand that they should not be ridden in their current condition.
CANBERRA BUYCYCLE will have a huge range of bikes on offer and what you see here (scroll up) is only an example of the type of bikes that will be available on CANBERRA BUYCYCLE DAY. As the event gets closer and closer, sellers will continue to list their bikes, so it’s a good idea to keep checking this website regularly. If you want to enlarge the view of a bike ‘click’ on its image.
When selecting your bike, please be mindful that BUYCYCLE is a market-style sale. These are used bikes and the price of the bike and all the details and information on the tag has been provided by the seller. We strongly recommend you “test ride” at the venue before you purchase. We accept Cash, Mastercard, Visa and PayPal.
