A used bike is good for your wallet and the planet – what’s not to love?
The Pro’s Closet is an online retailer that offers a constantly changing selection of Certified Pre-Owned and new bikes, wheels and parts.
All second-hand products sold by The Pro’s Closet are inspected meticulously – and, if required, repaired – prior to sale, giving you the same confidence you have when buying new, and at a lower price.
Alongside the used bikes and equipment, there’s also a range of new cycling kit, components and accessories on offer.
Based in Colorado, The Pro’s Closet ships across the United States of America and Canada.
How The Pro’s Closet’s in-house checks work
Each bike undergoes a 141-point inspection by The Pro’s Closet’s team of mechanics.
In fact, no fewer than eight mechanics work on each bike through the different phases of inspection and tuning.
From a deep clean to servicing the drivetrain, brakes and wheels – including any necessary part replacements or repairs – The Pro’s Closet estimates the average value of this service at over $200.
Each bike listed on The Pro’s Closet site includes photos outlining any repairs and imperfections, offering complete clarity when you’re considering the bike.
The Pro’s Closet even has an indoor track on its warehouse floor, where bikes are test-ridden to ensure they’re ready to ride when they arrive at your door.
Additional benefits from The Pro’s Closet
Each bike sold under the Certified Pre-Owned programme comes with a 30-day money-back guarantee.
If your bike doesn’t meet your expectations or the fit isn’t right, you can return it and get your money back.
Certified Pre-Owned bikes also come with a guaranteed buy-back offer for 18 months.
If you fancy trying something new, or like to upgrade regularly, you can do so with less cash coming out of your pocket.
All bikes from The Pro’s Closet, whether new or part of its Certified Pre-Owned scheme, are shipped almost fully assembled. That means there’s very little standing in the way of your first ride on new bike day.
In addition to the bike itself, The Pro’s Closet supplies a torque tool, tutorial and guide to help you get started.
