Since its establishment in 2021, Revolve ReCYCLING has been dedicated to revitalising old bicycles and reducing waste. They recover, recycle, and redeploy various forms of personal transport, including bikes, e-bikes, scooters, and more. With a commendable track record, they have successfully redeployed 1,431 bikes, preventing tons of materials from ending up in landfills and saving 140,000 kg of greenhouse gas emissions. The team at Revolve ReCYCLING comprises certified mechanics who repair and refurbish high-quality bikes. These refurbished bikes are then made available for sale at affordable prices, and donated to children, ensuring accessibility for all.

Through the SPARK program, Revolve ReCYCLING aims to expand their impact by developing a Certified Bicycle and Personal Transport Vehicle (PTV) Mechanics training program specifically designed for First Nations people. This social enterprise will not only provide valuable skills and employment opportunities but also foster inclusivity and representation within the cycling and personal transport industry.
