Trading in your bicycle

Trade-in musts:

• Your trade-in must be no more than 15 years old
• Your trade-in must be of bicycle shop quality (a brand that is currently being sold in bicycle shops, though not necessarily a brand we carry - e.g. Specialized, Trek, Giant, Marin, Fuji, Bianchi etc.)
• Your trade in must be an adult bike
• Your trade-in must be multi-geared (we do not accept single speed bikes for trade-in value)
• Your trade-in must be in at least 'good' condition - no dents, only mild scratching or abrasions, operates normally

Trade-in value - How we determine the value of your trade-in:

• We assess your bike's blue-book value based on the model, year and condition, then subtract our mandatory service time cost for trade-ins and any replacement part values (new chains are mandatory and new brake pads/cabling are often needed)
• We can sometimes give a quote while you wait, but please be prepared to leave your bike for 24 hours in order for us to determine your trade-in value

Bicycles we can not accept:

• Youth bikes (unless your bicycle was purchased with us under our 'Grow with Us' program)
• Single speed bikes (bikes without multiple gears)
• Department store bikes (any bike purchased at a 'big box' chain or online)
• Bikes that can not currently perform normal bicycle functions (if it can't be ridden, we can't accept it)
