Refurbished Brighton BikeShare bikes heading to Malawi

Approximately 100 BTN BikeShare bikes will soon be shipped to Malawi to support communities in the southeast African country.

A spokesperson for Brighton and Hove Council Said “As part of our work to reuse, recycle or repurpose the old BikeShare fleet removed from the streets in late December, 110 chain-driven bikes will be assessed to see if they can be converted and donated to the charity ‘Cycle of Good’.

The bikes will then be shipped to Malawi where they will be used by local communities.

Bikes which can’t be converted will be stripped down for reusable parts and recyclable materials. 

Some parts will go to help maintain e-bikes for council staff, with the rest going to local cycling charity Re:Cycle. All remaining parts will be broken down into component materials for recycling.”
