Buy used bike

You want to start cycling again and are therefore looking for a good used bike? Then you are exactly right with us, we will find your perfect used bike in no time. In addition, we offer free delivery on the desired date and 12 months warranty. You are not convinced by our used bike? Don't worry! Because with our 30-day return policy, you are on the safe side.

Buy the right used bike

Before you start your search, you should be aware of what kind of bike you are looking for. Should it be a used women's bike, men's bike or unisex? How much should it cost? Should it be a cheaper used bike, or should it be a more expensive used bike? In our assortment, you will find bikes that are hardly older than three years - we are sure that you will find the perfect bike for you.

Of course, you don't have to have an immediate answer to all these questions, but we at velio try to simplify your search for the best possible bike with our Bike Finder. You can filter our website by a specific model, year of manufacture, manufacturer or by an exact price range.

In addition, you can search for used e-bikes or used bikes without a motor right from the start. Here you can easily distinguish between different categories. For example, for bikes without a motor, there are the categories mountain bikes, Road + Gravel, Trekking and City. For e-bikes, we have the categories E-Mountainbike, E-Trekking, E-Race + E-Gravel and E-City for you to choose from.

The only important thing is that you choose a used bike that fits you in terms of size.

How do you find your right frame size?

Don't worry, not everyone knows their exact frame size right from the start. But that's what we're here for - with our Bike Finder on the velio website, you can quickly calculate which used bike has the right size for you by entering your height in centimeters. If you don't know your size 100% to the centimeter, that's no problem either! For each of the used bikes on our site, whether e-bike or bio-bike, there is a size range in the display field for which this bike is suitable.

The advantages of a used bike

In addition to the cost point, the environmental aspect naturally also plays an important role when buying a used bike. There are already so many produced bicycles that still work perfectly, but are simply no longer needed or were the result of an impulsive bad purchase. At this point, simply save your money and instead of buying a new bike, opt for an impeccable used one. In addition, you get a warranty on the motor and battery on the bikes purchased from us, so you are covered in any case.

The advantages at a glance:

  • Cheaper than new bikes

  • More environmentally friendly than a new bike

  • 12 months warranty

Incidentally, the difference between a new and a used bike is up to 300 kilograms of CO₂.

But what does refurbished even mean on an affordable, used bike?

In order to buy a used bike without worries, it is important that it has at least been checked by a mechanic for function and durability. At velio, every used bike, no matter if it is an e-bike or a standard bike, has to go through our check process before we offer it to you for sale. This way, we make it possible for you to have the greatest pleasure with your eco-friendly secondhand bike. During this check in our in-house master workshop, the bike is checked from top to bottom - whether tires, brakes or gears. Thanks to us, you can be sure that everything has been checked. For e-bikes, we also check the motor and battery. Even visual defects are documented in detail during this process, so that you are informed transparently about all possible defects when choosing your used bike.

If you still don't like something, we have a 30-day money-back guarantee.

How much does a used bike cost?

Of course, buying a used bike is significantly cheaper than buying a new one - and as a bonus, you're doing something good for the environment, since nothing has to be newly produced for you.

Otherwise, the costs vary depending on your search query. Do you want an e-mountain bike from the current season? Or would you prefer an older model that is not an e-bike, but from a certain brand? All these filter criteria allow you to quickly and easily find your next bike - but of course the prices also vary depending on your query.

Before selling, we perform a general refurbishment on all used bikes so that we can present you with the best possible version of your new used bike.

If you decide on a higher-priced used bike, you also have the option to pay in installments with 0% financing. This way you can already use your bike while you pay it off monthly and can easily adapt the bike purchase to your financial situation. You can choose the installments up to a length of 24 months with 0% financing.

What are the brands of bicycles?

Maybe you came across a certain brand while browsing that you just like, or maybe you filtered for it right from the start. Either way, we at velio have a wide selection of cycling brands. Of course, no one expects you to be a professional in the subject area, so we want to introduce you to a few of the brands you can find in our range. These include for example:

  • KTM

  • BMC

  • Haibike

  • Cube

  • Kalkhoff

  • Bulls

  • Specialized
