Preowned Bicycles
We are excited to open and present to our customers the preowned / used bicycles webpage. As you may suspect and expect, we only select and buy high quality preowned bikes. That said, you may be lucky and find a classic branded bike here from time to time. So if you are a collector, do visit us from time to time.
Selection;
Before buying a bike from any customer, we try to make sure that the bike is coming from a respectable person and that it is not a stolen bike. We also try to find out if there was any maintenance done on the bike or not. Of course we want to know the reason why the customer wants to sell the bike.
We also give the bike good inspection before buying it, so that we can offer a good deal to the customer who is selling.
Preparation;
Once the bike is in our hands, we run it through our service department, and in most cases we put it through the “Essential Maintenance” service. During the service if we notice that anything needs immediate attention, we take care of it. Be it re-greasing the hubs, the headset, or replacing cables and/or cable housing. We do all we can to bring it to prime condition.
Modifications;
In rare cases we make modifications to the bike before putting it up for sale. This is in such cases where the previous owner has modified the bike for his purpose, by putting a stem that is too long, or a handlebar that does not match the bike, or anything that does not look or feel right, thereby minimizing the original design, functionality and performance which was done by the manufacturer after years of professional research and development. We do not replace the tires, unless the ones on the bike are dangerously worn out, or dry rotted, which would pause a hazard to the next buyer.
Warranties;
Given that we start by choosing quality used bikes, we inspect them, and we service them, and fix what needs to be fixed, we don’t see a reason not to offer warranties to our first buyer for most bikes with restrictions to carbon frame bikes or bikes with carbon components.
6 Months Frame & Tranny Warranty is what we offer as standard (excluding carbon frames and carbon components). More details will be handed to the customer with each bike.
Free Gear Tune-up Service;
We offer a Free Gear Tune-Up service, applicable between 150 and 250 km (after the bike is purchased) and within a 3 months period. This service is free to the first buyer only and does not transfer to the next buyer should the customer sell the bike within the 3 months period.
