When is New Bike Day!?
Can any bicycle and electric bicycle be traded in?

Most two-wheel electric bikes are eligible but you can always check on Upway.com.

We cannot accept trade-ins of bicycles or electric bicycles wider than 10" or longer than 85" (i.e. tandems or tricycles).

If you are unsure of your bicycles eligibility, please reach out!

How long does it take to get a value estimate?

Electric Bikes

We can get you an estimate over the phone or by email for electric bikes if we have the make, model, style of bike (cargo, speed, mountain etc), original purchase price, and model year.

How long does it take to get my trade-in credit?

As long as we have all the items needed from your trade-in bicycle or electric bicycle (charger, keys, and any accessories you'd like to trade in as well), we can apply the credit directly to your new bike.

Who are your trade-in partners?

We work with Upway for all of our electric bike trade-ins. Upway provides instant valuations, and we send your bike to them once the trade-in is confirmed.

Can a bicycle or ebike in any condition be traded-in?

The condition of your bicycle will impact valuation.

Any bike where the components are damaged or compromised in any way that impacts safety cannot be considered for trade-in until the issues are remedied.
