Bikespace
Bikespace is a well-equipped community bike workshop, staffed by mechanics. We assist and teach members of the Wellington community to repair and maintain their bikes – for free! Our emphasis is equal parts teaching and fixing - with the guests hands on and assisting with the work. We operate out of a blue BIKESPACE container next to Te Papa in central Wellington. Find out more here.
It’s getting better all the time!
