U-cycle is the official University of Nottingham's bike rental company, offering bike hire to students and staff all year round. We provide good quality, reliable bikes which make travelling around campus and Nottingham a breeze. The bikes provide a more affordable and greener form of travel - making it the best option for student transport.  We offer competitive hiring rates for all our bikes 

The threat of climate change and global warming are two issues that cannot be ignored. So, whilst U-cycle raises funds for social enterprises, it also helps reduce the amount of carbon dioxide emissions released as a result of traditional modes of transport, such as cars or buses. For example, the average carbon dioxide emissions level of a new car sold in 2023 was 4.6 metric tons per year. By cycling, you cut out this environmentally harmful by-product - A University of Nottingham student swapping from the bus to U-cycle contributes around 80% less CO2 per year (a total of 39.6 Kilograms of CO2 prevented from entering the atmosphere)!

U-cycle is part of Enactus Nottingham, a student led organisation running social enterprises both locally and internationally, transforming the lives of thousands of people. 100% of the profits made by U-cycle goes into providing funding for these businesses that create a sustainable and lasting impact on communities.
