Our Story

It all started with a bike…

In 2021, Vapaus gave returned benefit bikes a second life—and Precycled was born. Our mission is simple: bring sustainable, high-quality bikes to riders while reducing waste.

Every Precycled bike is carefully checked, repaired, and rated for condition, with worn parts replaced to ensure a smooth ride. All bikes come with a 12-month warranty, so you can ride with confidence.

We’re a passionate team of mechanics, webshop experts, and cycling enthusiasts, united by a shared goal: making cycling more accessible, eco-friendly, and fun. At Precycled, we’re not just fixing bikes—we’re creating a movement toward a greener future, one ride at a time.

Why is a Precycled bike a great choice?

Cost savings

Precycled (used) bikes are significantly cheaper than new ones, allowing you to get a higher-end model for a lower price.

Eco-friendly choice

Buying second-hand reduces waste and lowers the demand for new bike production, which consumes raw materials and energy.

Less worry about scratches and damage

A used bike already has some wear and tear, so you won’t stress over every small scratch or dent.

Ideal for beginners and experimentation

If you’re new to cycling, a Precycled (used) bike lets you test different types (road, mountain, hybrid) without a huge investment.

One-year warranty

All Precycled bikes come with a 12-month warranty regardless of their manufacturing year.
