WorkCycles has two full-service locations in Amsterdam that are well worth finding, even if there happen to be 50 other bike shops along the way. At both Workcycles stores you can see, test ride, purchase and rent the best city and transport bicycles in the world.
Both locations are also extensively equipped for maintenance, repairs and modifications. We service both WorkCycles bicycles and other quality makes and happily perform jobs that ordinary bike shops wouldn't touch. We open and repair internal gear hubs, lace wheels with custom cut spokes in all sizes, weld frames and carriers, repair the wooden boxes of bakfietsen and do functional restorations and upgrades of old bikes. Our workshops were purpose-designed for large cargo bikes and trikes and we welcome them. Please note that we're busy year-round so calling in advance for a service or rentals appointment is highly recommended.

Our huge and beautiful Lijnbaansgracht store is in the middle of the cozy, historic Jordaan neighborhood in central Amsterdam. In addition to our new bikes we also have a fair number of interesting antique bikes here. Customers regularly tell us it's the coolest transportation bike shop in the Universe and well worth a visit.
It is around the corner from the Lindenmarkt, just a couple blocks from the Noordermarkt and walking distance from Amsterdam Central Station (on a nice day). Reaching this shop by car is tricky and parking here can be difficult. Cycling, walking or public transport are recommended. If you're traveling by car it'll be easier to visit our Veemarkt location.
Our original Veemarkt location is on the east side of Amsterdam in the "Eastern Docklands" neighborhood near the IJ river. This is where it all began in 2003, with Henry working around the clock alone building and selling bikes. The compact Veemarkt shop is densely packed with bikes, parts and tools and spills out into the parking area. It's a great, quiet spot for trying out unfamiliar bikes. Being hidden in a small industrial terrain Workcycles Veemart tends to be less busy too so we can generally repair or build your bike here faster.
