Bikespace

Bikespace is a community bicycle repair workshop located in the centre of Pōneke.

At Bikespace you work hands-on alongside one of the friendly and knowledgeable mechanics to diagnose bicycle issues and make repairs, while building bike confidence and your own skills for next time.

All Bikespace services are free thanks to funding from the Council.

Bus bike rack

At Bikespace you can also learn how to use the bike racks fitted on Metlink buses. There is a trial bike rack attached to the side of Bikespace with instructions on how to use it.

Note: From 9 November 2024, Metlink has temporarily stopped the use of bike racks on its buses until further notice, following guidance from the NZ Transport Agency Waka Kotahi.
