Mighty But Mini!
Lean and nimble, Tern HSD e-cargo bikes are capable of hauling up to 180kg (max gross vehicle weight) whilst also being shorter than a regular bike! The low centre of gravity, step-thru frame and easy ability to adjust for different riders makes the HSD a perfect family vehicle.
The Gen2 HSD's now have a smart electronic lock option which activates automatically when you park, disabling the e-bike system and helping prevent theft. Your smartphone serves as the no-fuss digital key for unlocking the bike.

T Line Brompton Brand new everything. Except the fold.
The all-new ultra-light titanium frame. Over 150 specially developed weight-saving components. Three years of obsessive material choices and rigorous testing. Everything brand-new except the fold. Andrew Ritchie, our founder, obsessed over that 40 years ago. Never bettered, just refined, it's the original and still the best.
Our first shipment of T Line Urban Bromptons has arrived - and already gone! More are due to arrive in March - contact us now to secure yours! View the specs here.
Bike Servicing and Repairs
Summer is a busy time in the workshop, with people getting back to work, school and just taking advantage of the weather to ride more. If your bike needs a service, please don't wait until something wears out or breaks before coming in or contacting our team.
On the spot / walk-in puncture repairs are still available.
We aim to offer same day servicing. To assist us with this, we request customers deliver their bikes to us between 9-10am on the day of their service (or the afternoon before), and are requested to collect their bikes on the same day their service is completed.
To book a service you're welcome visit us in person, or contact us by:
Velo Cycles - Merri-bek City Council Bike Counter Update
December followed the trend of previous years and took a dip - but with a total better than the previous two years, 64,433 is a good number to finish the year on.
December's weekday average was 2,343 riders. The best day of the month was Wednesday 6 December (before summer holidays started in earnest), which saw 3,501 riders past the counter.
January's number picked up, coming in at a respectable 71,393 - a very similar start to the year compared with 2020, 2021 and 2023. With people still on leave and school holidays continuing until the end of the month, lower January figures are typical.
January's weekday average was 2,445 riders. The best day of the month was Tuesday 30 January which saw 3,733 riders past the counter.
