Interested in being a part of a growing company with a proactive and eco-conscious approach to making sports more affordable? Look no further - this is what we're all about.

At Cycling Avenue, we're on a mission to transform the way customers shop and sell pre-loved goods. Leveraging our online trade-in platform and our expansive knowledge of all things biking, we're proud to be continuously giving used cycling gear a new life. We turn one person's used bike into another's dream upgrade.

With established brands such as Cycling Avenue, Golf Avenue and Golfbidder, we're part of a group that thrives to be the largest online resource for refurbished and second-hand products across the globe. Circular economy is the value we're built upon: we make it convenient for customers to sell us their gear, we expertly extend the product's life, and we finally re-sell the gear over our online platforms.

Join us and let's give second-hand a whole new lease on life!
