The bicycle workshop in Burgdorf offers comprehensive services around bicycles. The workshop is divided into two parts. In the customer workshop, bicycles of all brands are repaired, and we also offer cargo trailers and
E-cargo bikes. The bicycle workshop also maintains the in-house e-bike fleet of the home delivery service.
In the participant workshop, 12 to 16 program participants receive an integration perspective by refurbishing donated bicycles under agogic guidance for secondhand sale. The bicycles are received from
workshops and private individuals. On customer request, stylish upcycled bicycles are also assembled.
In spring 2026, both workshops will receive an upgrade: more space, modern equipment, and a contemporary and attractive design.
