Campus Bike Centre at Dalhousie!

The Dalhousie Office of Sustainability, Athletics and Recreational Services, and Clean NS have come together to provide a space for bicycle maintenance. The Bike Centre is conveniently located in the northwest corner of the Studley Gym building, adjacent to the Wickwire Field.

This is a space where people from the Dalhousie community can repair and maintain their bicycles. Experienced bicycle mechanics are on hand during some of the open hours to help assist you in working with your bicycle. The tools are there for you to use when the centre is open.

We don't stock parts so if you need a replacement part, you can purchase it and we can
assist you in installing it. There are several shops in Halifax that sell parts.

I encourage everyone to come by and see the space after the Flash Mob on Monday afternoon. Familiarize yourself with the space and ask us questions. Or come by anytime
we’re open to check us out!
