Donate your bicycle or bicycle parts

If you are cycling in Ladakh, and don't want to bother carrying back your old mountain bike to your country, we are really happy to accept them as donation, repair them and rent them out.
You can donate your bicycle to our non-profit bicycle rental shop, or we offer you a scheme to provide any time in the future free bicycle rental at our shop in exchange for your donation. If the bicycle is prepared for long trips, we might also be able to pay you some reasonable price for them.
As it is very difficult to get spare parts in Leh, we are also very happy to accept some parts donations from tubes to tires, cables, chains, pedals, etc.
Ask at Mountain Trails, 50m up from Dzomsa shop in Leh.
