Lekker Bikes Brisbane

Born in Amsterdam and raised in Australia. Lekker Bikes was created by Dutch industrial engineer Meindert Wolfraad in 2008. Wolfraad arrived in Bondi ready for a gap year only to end up launching LEKKER Bikes in 2009, introducing the residents of Down Under to the Amsterdam way of moving around the city. With brand stores across the country, Brisbane’s brand store is open Tuesday to Sunday and stocks the complete range of classic and electric bicycles by LEKKER. At LEKKER they celebrate exploring by bike as a way of life, a way to see more of the world and a way to enjoy everything out there.

Tandem Co Coffee & Cycle

We’d struggle to name a better, more iconic combination than coffee and bicycles. Tandem Co Coffee & Cycle combined two of our favourite things when they opened the store in 2017. Initially a place for cyclists to meet up and refuel, it has quickly grown into a bike sales and service centre along with the cafe. They offer custom builds to help get you onto your dream bike and service all bikes, new or old. Tandem stocks complete BMC bikes and Chapter2 frames are just waiting for their perfect build. Whether you require a service or just a chat, swing past Tandem. The coffee is always delicious, and there’s always someone happy to chat.  

We love bikes, and we love coffee.
