Mobility of tomorrow: The bicycle represents the sustainable future of mobility
Bicycles are sustainable, economical and healthy. They cause little noise and no air pollution. Bicycles are flexible: they can be used for sport, leisure or to get from A to B.
In recent years, the number of bicycles on the roads has increased significantly. This is partly because more and more people are aware of the importance of sustainability. Bicycles are an important part of the solution to climate change and air pollution.
There is no doubt that the bicycle is the most sustainable mode of transport. It is emission-free, requires no fossil fuels and causes no air pollution. Bicycles are also economical: they do not need registration, insurance or a licence.
Refurbished instead of new: refurbished bikes are the future
Refurbished bikes are bikes that have been used before and then reconditioned or repaired so that they are like new again. When you buy a refurbished bike, you give an old bike new life instead of buying a brand new one.
Buying a reconditioned bike has many advantages:
It is more sustainable than buying a new bike
It is often cheaper than buying a new bike
You contribute to a sustainable reduction of your CO2 footprint
If you are looking for a more sustainable bike, you should consider buying a refurbished bike. Buying a refurbished bike is a great way to get a sustainable and affordable bike. Designing bikes along the lines of preferring to prevent repairs to force new purchases is not in keeping with the times. Actively promoting multiple use of bicycles makes it possible to get the absolute maximum out of resources.
Resource conservation must also be at the top of the agenda for the transport turnaround.
Access for all: the second-hand market enables sustainable mobility
Sustainable mobility is important. But it is equally important that everyone has access to it. The high price of a new bike is a challenge for many. The second-hand market is the solution.
The second-hand market is a great way to get a sustainable and affordable bike. With our refurbished bikes, you can save a good 60 percent compared to buying a new bike and still get the same quality as a new bike. Our experts take a close look at the bikes and if something does go wrong, you are always covered by our warranty and velio Protect.
The second-hand market is not only good for your wallet, but also for the environment. Every time a used bike is bought instead of a new one, CO2 emissions are reduced. In addition, used bikes often have a longer lifespan than new ones, which further reduces the environmental impact.
