Adopt, don't shop!

Want to buy a bike and still hesitating between a used bike and a new bike?

Choosing a used bicycle has many more advantages than you might think!

More value for money

The most obvious advantage, of course, is the price!

You can often buy a used bicycle for a fraction of the price of a new bicycle. More than that; you can pick up a used bicycle of much better quality for the same amount of money as a simple new bicycle.

The bikes from de Wielredders are completely reconditioned and you also get a one-year warranty on your bike. So in terms of quality, these bikes should not be inferior to a new bike!

Sustainability

When you choose a used bicycle, you are doing your part for a sustainable economy and the environment. After all, you ensure that a bicycle gets a new life and is not thrown away. This not only saves a lot of new raw materials, but also a lot of CO2.

Cycling is of course a CO2-friendly choice anyway, but the production of a bicycle also emits CO2. So not having to produce new bikes also means producing less CO2!

More choice

You may not think about this, but second-hand you often find much more choice in the category of bikes you're looking for! After all, you're not bound to the bikes that are currently in the range of your favorite bike brand, but find second-hand often unexpected gems from limited editions, or discover top bikes you didn't know yet.

Social economy

When you choose a bike from De Wielredders on top of that, you also contribute to the social economy! De Wielredders is in fact a project of the social employer Werkmmaat. Talented people with a distance to the labor market find their dream job with us, while we support them with education and training.

So your new bike helps ensure that we can continue to make the economy a little more inclusive and social!
