Welcome to Yellow Velo!
Our little shop was built around one simple idea: Great bikes never go out of style. And we’ve filled it with a carefully curated mix of restored vintage bicycles, frames, custom parts, stylish cycling clothing, and unique cycling accessories.
Alongside our extensive bike rental fleet, we run guided E-bike tours, as well as operating a fully equipped workshop for servicing, repairs and custom builds.
Yellow Velo isn’t just a shop — it’s a place for people who love bicycles, great design, and exploring the world on two wheels. So whether you’re looking for a bike rental in Interlaken, a one-of-a-kind custom build, or simply a place to explore the world of cycling, Yellow Velo is a place where bikes are celebrated in all their forms.
From the Beginning
Yellow Velo was founded in 2021, beginning as a small workshop project restoring forgotten vintage bicycles discovered in garages and cellars across Switzerland.
After years of collecting bikes, parts, and cycling memorabilia, the project slowly grew into something bigger. In 2023 we opened the Yellow Velo store in Interlaken — a place dedicated to celebrating cycling history while building and restoring beautiful bikes for riders today.
At the same time, we wanted to share both our love for vintage bicycles and the incredible beauty of the region with others. That’s why we began offering retro bike rentals and guided tours, giving locals and visitors alike the chance to experience Interlaken and the surrounding mountains from the saddle of a beautiful bike.
Our Philosophy
At Yellow Velo, great customer service is just as important to us as great bicycles. We take the time to understand what our customers are looking for and enjoy helping people find the bike, parts, routes or equipment that suits them best.
Alongside this, we believe that bicycles should be beautiful, reliable, and built to last.
Many of the vintage bikes we restore were originally made decades ago using high-quality materials and timeless designs. With proper care, these machines can continue to ride for generations.
Alongside these classics, we build custom bikes using carefully chosen components and stock products that share the same philosophy — thoughtful design, quality craftsmanship, and timeless style.
Because in our view, the best bikes aren’t disposable.
They’re the ones you keep riding for years.
Why Interlaken?
That’s easy. Step outside the door and you’ll see the dramatic cliffs of Harder Kulm, the alpine peaks of the Jungfrau region, and at the end of our street, the turquoise waters of the Aare River flowing between Lake Thun and Lake Brienz.
From relaxed lakeside rides to legendary alpine climbs like the Grosse Scheidegg, the riding here offers something for everyone.
Whether you’re visiting for a few days or are lucky enough to be here year-round, Interlaken is an incredible base for exploring the mountains by bike — and we’re always happy to help you find the perfect route.
