What We Do

Please Note - Wee Spoke Hub is currently on hiatus!

We are an Edinburgh-based bike shop with a difference!

We are currently part of the Scotland Cycle Repair Scheme!

This is providing free repairs and maintenance to people who need it most, to get thousands of people across the country on their bikes.

It’s funded by Transport Scotland and administered by Cycling UK to provide free repairs up to the value of £50.

The coronavirus crisis has hit many people hard, so we know it can be difficult to pay for essential bike repairs.

If you’d struggle to afford bike maintenance right now, just contact us and get your repair booked in.


What else do we do?

  • We sell second-hand and brand new bike parts.
  • We have trained mechanics who can fix your bike.
  • We repair bikes that have been donated and sell them on at a reasonable price.
  • We run DIY bike repair sessions where you can learn to fix your bike yourself.

What makes us different?

  • We are an inclusive bike space.
  • We take the environmental impact into consideration for every decision we make.
  • We have an Ethical Pricing System which means we are deliberately inexpensive compared to many other retailers.
  • We are a non-profit organization, so any money we make goes back into the community.
  • We put people and planet first.

Opening hours:

Closed until further notice


The Wee Spoke Hub is a welcoming workshop space where tools and expertise are provided by our volunteers and mechanic to help you learn the skills to take care of your bike.

We have a range of refurbished bikes and second hand parts for sale and we are currently available for bike repair bookings so drop our wonderful Mechanic, Anna, an email to arrange a slot at weespokehub@shrubcoop.org or call on 0131 220 1884.

At the Wee Spoke Hub, we aim to help make cycling an affordable, attractive and accessible mode of transport for everyday use. Because of this, we have introduced an Accessible Tiered Pricing System, to allow us to operate in line with our core values.

Tiered System

Tier 1 - @cost (75% of our published prices) for those unemployed or on less than Scottish Living Wage of £9.50 an hour.

Tier 2 - @ 90% of our published prices for those under Scottish Median Wage of £24897 per annum.

Tier 3 - @ 100% of industry standard with the option to donate more in support of our community and outreach programmes for those earning Scottish Median Wage of £24897 per annum or above.

Tier 4 - If you are in the top 1%, then we’ll charge you a flat £1k for your bike repair or refurbished bike! All profits will go to supporting our outreach work and helping those in need get up and running on 2 wheels!


The Wee Spoke Hub is part-funded by Smarter Choices Smarter Places, Gannochy Trust and the Bank of Scotland Foundation. The Smarter Choices Smarter Places is a Paths for All’s programme funded by Transport Scotland.

This funding is enabling us to restart our much-loved Fix Your Own Bike workshops; volunteer programme and offer some exciting new cycle-focused activities to help folk develop a love of bikes and biking! Keep your eye on this page, our social media and newsletter for information about dates for these activities and workshops coming soon!

Frequently Asked Questions
