Velorim tyre recycling available at Stif

Velorim Tyre recycling at Stif Mountain Bikes

We’re excited to announce Stif has become a drop off centre for Velorim - a recycling scheme for tyres and tubes.

Old bicycle tyres

Around 45 million tonnes is created in landfill waste each year. For just 60p per tyre or 25p per tube you could help make that number smaller by recycling your old tattered tyres and tubes. Because let's be honest, they’re not doing much but catching dust in the corner of your shed!

Old bicycle tyres

Velorim will take the old tyres and tubes and separate them into each component - rubber, steel and fibre. Each component is then shredded and created into new materials that can be used to manufacture new products.

New MTB Tyres

If you end up buying some tyres from us in either of our stores you can recycle your old ones with us for free, or if you just fancy recycling your tyres without getting fresh ones just drop them off with us at either store.

We just ask that all valves be cut off (you can still bring these as we can recycle them) and all sealant be washed out.
