WeBuyCycle: buying, selling and part-exchanging premium bicycles

WeBuyCycle operates as a buyer and retailer of high-end bicycles. Its stated focus is on road, triathlon and mountain bikes whose resale value exceeds £750, a threshold the company sets as the minimum for purchase. The business presents itself as a simple and trusted route for cyclists who want to sell a bike, buy a new or pre-owned one, or use a part-exchange arrangement.

What the company buys

The purchase side is limited to three categories: road bikes, triathlon bikes and mountain bikes. The minimum resale value of £750 acts as a filter for the models the company considers. Sellers can request a valuation through a dedicated form on the site, which is the first step in the process the company describes as "as simple as 123".

New and pre-owned stock

The retail catalogue combines new and pre-owned premium cycles. Among the brands listed in the stock are Canyon, Cube, Wilier, Trek, Cinelli, Cannondale, Ribble, Colnago, GT, Specialized, BMC, Pinarello, Giant, Scott, Orbea, Ridley, 3T, Cipollini and Argon 18. The range covers road, gravel/CX, electric mountain and downhill mountain models, with sizes and specifications detailed for each listing.

Some entries are marked as new with a full warranty, such as the Wilier Garda 105 Di2 Power Meter carbon disc road bike in various sizes. Others are pre-owned models with specific sizes, including examples such as a Trek Madone SL6 Gen 8, a Specialized S-Works Tarmac SL8 and a Pinarello Dogma F. The catalogue shows prices in pounds sterling, with figures ranging from £895 for a Ribble R872 to £6,995 for an S-Works Tarmac SL8.

Part-exchange and cycle-to-work

Beyond outright purchase and sale, WeBuyCycle offers part-exchange (PX) as a way to trade in a current bike against another. The site also refers to a cycle-to-work scheme, with a link for further information, aimed at buyers who want to acquire a bike through that arrangement.

How the service is presented

The company frames its activity around three actions: selling, buying and part-exchanging. A valuation form is available for sellers, and a stock section lists the bikes currently offered. The site also includes a "Find me a bike" option for customers who cannot find a suitable model in the published stock.
