About Us

Hello, we're Mike, Tara & now Little Sid!

We set up Bright Bikes in 2021 (just before Sid came along!) when we saw that kids and families in Bristol didn't have much choice of places to go where they could try out and choose a bike that's perfect for them.

We love to source, refurbish, renew and brighten up secondhand children's bikes, some of which may otherwise have been forgotten about or sent to landfill.

We and our team of mechanics replace parts, fully check over all the bikes and give them the TLC they need to ensure they are riding well, so they can continue to be a source of joy for kids of all ages.

Whether you are after a super lightweight, high-end first bike for your child, or simply a reliable budget bike that you know will serve well, we will likely have it!

We know how much fun bikes can offer for the whole family and we are passionate about supporting this to be a positive and fun experience for you and your kids right from the start!

We look forward to meeting you!

What our Customers are Saying:

"As a parent, if you want a bike for your kid, look no further.
Really high quality refurbished kids bikes, great prices and exceptional service.
Mike is lovely, and really cares about finding the right bike for your little one. He encourages them to ride up and down the road, take their time before choosing which one is best.
Halfords does not even compare!!!
In summary, I would only suggest going here to get your little one a bike!
Say hello to Mike from me!"

"Brilliant help finding a bike for my son. Mike was super friendly and helpfully talked through their stock before allowing my son to have some test rides and make a choice.
Kids go through bikes so quickly so it was amazing to find such a fantastic family business stocking good-quality used bikes. Will definitely be back as the kids grow."
Jason

"Spent a great morning with our four year old trying out bikes. Mike was so helpful and patient while we went through all the different models and tried lots out, eventually settling on one which has been a great purchase. Highly recommend! Thank you Mike."

Joanna

"What a wonderful place! Mike was extremely helpful, patient and helped us find brilliant bikes for the kids. Highly recommended, will come back for all future bike purchases!"

Andrew

"Such a great experience buying our nearly 4 year old his first bike. Mike was super helpful and really paid attention to finding a bike that was the right fit for us. Our son loved the experience too and came away full of confidence to start learning to ride a pedal bike."

Rebecca

"Amazing service and selection of bikes. Mike is so friendly and knowledgeable, and there is no pressure to buy. Our 4 year old was able to try out a load of different bikes (across different price ranges) to see which one she got on best with. While trying them out she even cycled on her own for the first time with no stabilisers!! We would definitely recommend Bright Bikes (and already have!) - we will be coming back when our daughter needs the next size up. Thanks Mike!"
