We Train You (or Your Trainer)
No mechanical background? No problem. Our comprehensive training program gets you — or anyone you hire — up and running with confidence. We’ve trained instructors across Australia. We know how to do this well.

The Product You’ll Be Selling Is Already Loved
Before you invest in a business, you want to know the product is genuinely excellent. Here’s what riders who’ve attended 1226 Bikes courses say — in their own words.
“Absolutely fantastic course. Steve explained everything clearly and I left feeling genuinely confident about maintaining my own bike. Worth every cent and I’d recommend it to any rider who wants to really understand their machine.”
“I’ve been riding for 15 years and still learnt things I didn’t know. The instructors are incredibly knowledgeable and the format is brilliant — hands-on, no fuss, and genuinely useful from the very first minute.”
“I was nervous going in but Steve made it so welcoming. Three hours flew by. I can now tune my own gears and brakes — something I never thought I’d be able to do. Already booked the drivetrain course.”
“The small group format is what makes this different. You’re not sitting through a lecture — you’re actually doing it, on your own bike, with expert guidance right there. Best cycling investment I’ve made.”
“Bought this as a gift for my partner who’s always had mechanical anxiety about his bike. He came home buzzing. Said it was the best three hours he’d spent on anything bike-related. Highly recommend.”
“I drive 45 minutes to get to the 1226 Bikes course and I’d do it again without hesitation. The quality is exceptional and the instructors clearly love what they do. This is a business that cares about getting it right.”
These are typical of the 250+ five-star reviews across Google and Facebook. The product sells itself — your job is to deliver it.
This Works for Three Types of People
You don’t need to be a professional mechanic. You don’t need business experience. You need to know your way around a bicycle — and the drive to build something of your own.
The Passionate Cyclist
You love bikes, you know bikes, and you’ve always thought about turning that passion into income. This is your path — without the risk of starting from scratch or the cost of buying an existing bike shop.
The Smart Investor
You have capital, you want a proven system, and you’d rather own a business with a running start than spend years building an audience from zero. You can hire a trainer — we train them too.
The Career Changer
You’re done with the 9-to-5. You want something hands-on, community-driven, and genuinely enjoyable. This is the kind of work where the day moves quickly and you go home knowing you’ve helped people in a real way.
Frequently Asked Questions
No. We train you from the ground up. If you know your way around a bicycle as a rider, that’s the foundation we build on. Our training covers everything you need to deliver courses professionally and confidently. If you’d prefer to hire an instructor, we train them too.
Yes. The $25,000 investment doesn’t have to happen all at once. We’re open to discussing payment arrangements that suit your situation. Contact us to talk through the options — we’d rather find a structure that works than lose a great operator over timing.
Our advertising campaigns are already running and reaching hundreds of thousands of cyclists every month. We redirect course participants to your location as soon as you’re set up. The volume grows over time as your location becomes established — but you’re not starting from zero. You’re joining a machine that’s already in motion.
No. This is not a franchise with ongoing royalty payments. We send you course trainees & pay you to train them. That’s how the arrangement works — we market and fill the courses, you deliver them. That’s the only ongoing financial relationship. No annual fees, no marketing levies, no royalty percentages.
Absolutely. The course business gives you cash flow, a customer base, and a reputation in the local cycling community. Building servicing or retail on top of that is a natural next step, and one we actively support.
You own the business outright. There’s no restriction on selling or transferring it. We’d simply need to be involved in the handover to ensure the new owner is properly trained and the quality of the operation is maintained.
Multiple opportunities are available per city, but we space them deliberately so operators don’t compete with each other. Locations are allocated on a first-come basis once we’re satisfied the operator is the right fit. Register your interest early — some cities are already receiving strong enquiries.
No. Our courses run at partner venues across Australia — existing commercial facilities that provide the space. You don’t need to lease a shop. This is one of the key reasons the model has such low overheads compared to a traditional bike shop setup.
