Napoleons Bicycles
Description
Napoleons Bicycle restorations began mid 2016 with a vision to save vintage/ collectable bikes from landfill. Napoleons bicycles was established to refurbish collectable bicycles. At Napoleons we are trying to create a new attitude towards bike riding. Riding a bike does not always have to be associated with exercise but more a lifestyle choice for recreation, and to enjoy the engineering of a machine we so often take for granted! Why buy a new (overpriced) bike when you can enjoy the vintage nostalgia of refurbished bicycles for less than half the price. Have fun with it! Often vintage 1970s-90s bicycles are taken to landfill to rot. Our philosophy is to reduce our carbon foot-print by reducing the amount of waste going through landfill and encouraging people to ride into town and grab your milk instead of driving a car.
