The 12th bike exchange, cyclists' gathering
On Wednesday 15 April 2026, from 10am to 5pm, the 12th arrondissement bike exchange sets up at the Sorbonne Nouvelle University, organised by La Cycklette.
La Cycklette, community bike workshop
La Cycklette runs a solidarity self-repair workshop, Bicycode anti-theft marking sessions, and the annual bike exchange.
How it works
Sellers drop their bike in the morning; the association sets a minimum price and handles the sale. Buyers get a technical check by volunteer mechanics.
What bikes
City bikes, hybrids, mountain bikes, kids' bikes, sometimes folding or vintage models. Prices typically €80 to €400.
An ecological gesture
Buying second-hand extends bike lifespans in a fast-growing cycling city.
