🌍 At County Cycles, we believe being environmentally friendly has never been more important.
As cyclists, we love the outdoors – and protecting it is at the heart of everything we do. That’s why we’re proud to offer practical ways for you to ride greener every day. 
💧 Muc-Off Refills – Less Plastic, More Savings
Bring your empty bottle back in and refill with our Muc-Off concentrates. Every refill helps cut down on single-use plastic, and with stations like ours, the network is making a real difference – saving tens of thousands of bottles annually across the UK alone.
Best part? Refilling saves you half the cost compared to buying a new bottle every time. Better for your wallet and the planet! Just pop in, top up, and keep riding clean. 
♻️ Schwalbe Tube Recycling Programme
We’re a proud participating member of the Schwalbe Recycling Scheme. You can drop off your old inner tubes (any brand!) at our shop – we collect them and send them back into the system.
Schwalbe’s innovative closed-loop programme recycles tubes into new high-quality ones, delivering over 80% energy savings compared to using virgin materials. It diverts thousands of tubes from landfills (where they can take hundreds of years to break down), conserves natural resources, reduces greenhouse gas emissions, and keeps valuable rubber in the production cycle instead of waste. 
Every tube you recycle with us helps build a more circular economy for cycling gear.

Come visit us at County Cycles, chat to the team about sustainable options, and join the green ride! 🚲💚
