“Securing a bike for a growing child at an affordable price, as next year he will have grown out of it, I can get a bike that is safe and I return the last one for re use by somebody else” De'ils On Wheels customer

Donating a bike

We accept donations of unwanted bikes, bike parts and some accessories although we can't accept helmets.

The easiest way to donate a bike to us is to drop it off at the workshop. We also offer a limited collection service for the G13 and G14 postcode areas. If you have a bike to donate then please contact us.

Every bike that gets donated to us helps support the work we do and by selling secondhand bikes it also helps people who may not have been able to afford a new bike to get cycling.

Revolve accreditation

Revolve is Scotland’s national re-use quality standard, making it easier and safer to buy second hand. De'ils On Wheels has been Revolve accredited since February 2015 and being part of the Revolve network allows us to provide our customers the re-assurance about quality, safety and cleanliness of our store. You can find out more in the short video below.

We were a finalist in the RBS Finding Scotland's Real Heroes awards - check out this short video featuring one of our volunteers.

About the name

De’ils On Wheels – so called in the spirit of Kirkpatrick MacMillan, the Scots inventor of the pedal bicycle. In 1842 the blacksmith rode his machine 70 miles from Dumfries into Glasgow, where people flocked to see the arrival of the “De’il on Wheels”. Unfortunately this led to him crashing into a small girl, and he was fined 5d as a result. However, the judge was so impressed by Kirkpatrick’s invention, he returned the fine. Kirkpatrick rode home, never exploiting his invention, not thinking of patents or money making, and quite unconcerned with the fuss he’d caused!
