Russell's Bicycle Shed - Neepsend

We love websites that help and inform, cycle parking is a big issue for many, knowing where you can park and lock your bike can make a difference to whether you cycle or not. This great openstreet map created by members of CycleSheffield helps inform everyone of the facilities available to park your bike.

Fresh in.

Rockrider ST500 24" — Russell’s Bicycle Shed 24 inch wheels make this a good bike for early to mid teens, but also for shorter adults who find it hard to get bikes that fit.  It’s got sleek black and yellow decals and without knowing it’s a 24” wheel you’d mistake it for an adult bike. 

Looking for parts for your bicycle?
Building yourself a pub bike?
Wanting to keep the costs of repair down?
Look no further than our amazing permanent bike jumble here at Neepsend.

Permanent Bike Jumble — Russell’s Bicycle Shed We love a bike jumble, most cyclists do and if you’ve ever ventured into one of these surreal gatherings you’ll understand why. They can be a tinderbox of highly flammable ultra bright cycling gear laid out next to chromed dynamo lights and 1990’s Shimano groupsets. They are great fun and if y...

Remember this?

Before Ofo turned up in Sheffield Russell's Bicycle Shed had been hiring bicycles from their Sheffield Station shop for several years. Hybrid and city bikes with 24 gears, some with hydraulic brakes and personal service.

During the brief period that Ofo came to Sheffield with its bike sharing scheme we continued to offer better bikes, longer more affordable hire periods and that personal service.

After Ofo closed and left Sheffield leaving bikes in the rivers and canal we were still here offering bike hire and we still are here offering bike hire. We are a local business supporting tourism, supporting people who want to ride bicycles as transport, you can even use one of our bicycles while yours is being repaired, free to Club Members but for a small charge if you are not.

Our bike hire will be here for as long as we are. Because we believe it matters.

An ode to the humble mudguard.

_O valiant shield of wheel and frame,_
You bear the brunt of nature’s game.
When skies weep down their sodden tears,
You stand between my shorts and smears.

No splash of grit, no stripe of grime,
Shall mark my back in rain-soaked time.
You whisper not, you boast no flair,
Yet keep my dignity threadbare.

Through puddled lanes and woodland trails,
Where muck and mulch compose their tales,
You guard my gears, my chain, my soul—
A silent knight with noble role.

Though racers scoff and strip you bare,
Preferring speed to self-care’s flair,
I hail your curve, your steadfast grace,
Your quiet pride in saving face.

So here’s to you, dear plastic arc,
Or metal fender, sleek and stark.
You are the cape my bike would wear,
If steeds of steel could show they care.
