Used bicycles are quickly gaining popularity, and it's not hard to see why! Last year we sold a second-hand e-bike, women's bicycle, men's bicycle or children's bicycle to more than 5,000 people. And their biggest motivation (apart from cycling ;) )? The sustainable and affordable choice of a second-hand and refurbished bicycle.
Of course it is extremely important that you do not just buy a second-hand bicycle.
At Cheapass Bikes, all bicycles and e-bikes are checked in detail before they are sold. This means that all parts that no longer work are replaced by properly functioning parts. This means that all bicycles are in top condition. This means that the bicycles are not actually 'second-hand' (even though it is often called that), but 'refurbished'. Refurbished means that all parts of the bicycle have been checked and repaired or replaced where necessary. So you actually receive a second-hand bicycle, but as good as new!
What does this mean for you as a consumer?
It means that you not only get a high-quality bicycle, but also contribute to a more sustainable world. By choosing a refurbished bicycle, you actively contribute to reducing waste and encouraging the reuse of materials. For example, the frames of the bicycles are often reused, but small parts are replaced or repaired. This way you are assured of reliable cycling pleasure, but you also encourage the reuse of materials.
And then we forget the second reason why people choose a second-hand bicycle: affordability! According to our customers, this is a big reason why they come to us. Quality bicycles do not have to be expensive, and we show that at Cheapass Bikes. Because we reuse the bicycle frames and as many parts as possible, the price for your bicycle decreases. And by buying second-hand you save the difference with a new bicycle, which quickly adds up to thousands of euros for a good electric bicycle.
Choose a refurbished bicycle from Cheapass Bikes and experience the perfect combination of quality, durability and affordability. Cycling has never been so good for you and the world around you. Discover the benefits of sustainability and affordability at Cheapass Bikes today and quickly check our stock to see which bike suits you.
