  • About Belfast Bikes

    Updated on Wednesday 9 April 2025

    We have appointed Beryl as the new operator of our Frank and Honest Belfast Bikes scheme. Beryl is the UK's leading shared sustainable transport provider, providing greener travel options to:

    • help reduce road congestion
    • improve air quality
    • improve public health

    The current operator, NSL Ltd, will continue to operate the scheme until Beryl takes over later this year. We will publish the launch date of the new operation on this page.

    Beryl will replace the infrastructure for the 60 on-street docking stations in a phased approach to accommodate the initial suite of 400 new bikes.

    When fully launched, the new operation will have both traditional pedal bikes and e-bikes. The introduction of e-bikes is being supported by the Department for Infrastructure’s Active Travel scheme (link opens in new window).
