Business On Bikes Ltd The Traditional Ice Cream Bike is the company’s flagship business on a bike! Combining traditional vending with modern reliable technology for high profit!

It is made to the highest specification, maintaining the traditional style of years gone by, yet incorporating modern reliable technology. The whole design is based on the classic 1940’s and 50’s “Stop Me and Buy One!” tricycles, everything does a full circle and some 60 years on, these incredible bikes are back in fashion and making a serious income. The freezer unit is manufactured to our specification and is a top of the range commercial unit, standard 240v with two glass-sliding lids and fully insulated top lids to ensure maximum trading hours. The lids also come with locks as standard, keeping your stock secure if left unattended. Simply plug in the unit overnight, un-plug the next day and away you go, then just plug it back in on your return, ready for the next days trading, no need to empty each day and move heavy freezer plates. However, as our name implies we can create any Business On a Bike and have created a range of tricycles we can offer alongside our flagship Ice Cream Tricycle. In the past we have made refrigeration tricycles for Cathedral City Cheese to sample cheese from, for the Co-Op to sample chilled food and for Disaronno to sample Disaronno Sours!! Our tricycles don’t have to just revolve around cold things!! We now have a new range of confectionary tricycles designed to be mobile and sell confectionary or other small items to the passing public! We also have created Hot Dog tricycles, Hot Chesnutt Tricycles, Soup/Crepe Tricycles and many more hot food ideas to capitalise on the mobility of your business being on a bike all year round! We pride ourselves on producing the complete package, everything you need to get to work, all you need to do is find a good location and get ready to sell! All our tricycles come with the option of being branded up to suit your company’s existing colours or if it’s a new start up we can help you create a new identity to get everybody talking about the new bike on the block! If you would like to find out more about our range of tricycles please do not hesitate to get in touch either by the phone 01204 322491 or email us at [email protected]

Completely different impact.

Coffee + bikes = a pretty good combination.

Our trading bikes can be adapted for coffee businesses, events, festivals, markets and corporate activations.

Compact. Mobile. Eye-catching.

And importantly — somewhere for your customers to actually see your brand.

One of the things we wanted to get right was making our ice cream bikes simple.

You shouldn’t have to buy a bike and then spend weeks figuring out what else you need.

Our complete Ice Cream Bike Package includes the bike, freezer, parasol, basket and standard graphics — ready to trade.

Need something different?

There are plenty of options available too.

📩 Ask us for the complete specification.

“We have worked with Business on Bikes for the last 5 years and James offers an exceptional service. The bikes are of a high standard and look fantastic as James wraps them in our branding. His attention to detail, support and efficient service is excellent. I would highly recommend Business On Bikes to anyone. Thank you James!

We love hearing from customers who don’t just buy one bike — they come back again and again.

English Lakes Ice Cream have worked with us for years, including fully branded bikes designed around their business.

That’s exactly what we’re trying to build at Business On Bikes:

Good bikes.
Good service.
Long-term relationships.

Thank you to every customer who has trusted us with their business.

Ever wondered what goes into building one of our bikes?

It all starts off in the metal workshop where we clean up once a year!

Every bike is assembled and prepared here in the UK, then finished with the equipment, graphics and options needed to get you trading.

From an empty frame to a finished business on a bike.

One of the questions we get asked most:

“How big is the bike?”

Our Traditional Ice Cream Bike measures approximately:

📏 2.2m long
📏 870mm wide
📏 1.2m high
🍦 216 litre freezer capacity

It’s compact enough to be practical and fit through doors, but big enough to make an impression.

And yes — it’s designed specifically for commercial use.
