Edinburgh Bicycle Co-operative is a bicycle retailer with three stores across Scotland, two stores in Northern England, and an online store selling worldwide.

The co-operative is the longest-established worker co-operative in Scotland, originally founded as a bicycle repair service in Edinburgh in 1977. In recent years the co-operative has grown to be a dominant bicycle retailer in Scotland.
