As a pioneer in bike leasing, we've always believed in the power of sustainable mobility. Now we're taking an important step forward by adding refurbished bikes through Upway to our offering. This expansion fits perfectly with our conviction that we must responsibly manage the resources our planet provides us.
"At Lease a Bike, we strongly believe in the possibilities of a circular economy. By offering refurbished bikes through Upway, we're taking a new step towards a greener future," explains Elmer Slag, our Managing Director. This new service means we're not only offering new bikes, but also high-quality, expertly refurbished bikes that are ready for a second life.
In Upway, we've found a partner that shares our values. They specialize in making high-quality refurbished e-bikes accessible. Their expertise ensures that every refurbished bike we offer meets the same high standards our customers are used to from us.
Gregory De Vroey, General Manager at Upway Benelux, emphasizes the strength of our partnership: “The collaboration with Lease a Bike offers us a unique opportunity to strengthen our mission and make our e-bikes accessible to a larger group of people. These are exciting times for sustainable mobility.”
With this expansion, we can help even more employees find their perfect bike. Refurbished bikes offer an excellent option for employees looking for high-quality bikes within their budget, since the price of these refurbished bikes can be up to 60% lower than that of a brand new bike. It means that quality and sustainability become even more accessible, without having to make compromises.
Through our digital platform, employees can easily choose from our extensive range, including these new refurbished options. Whether it's an electric bike for long commutes or a city bike for daily use – there's now a sustainable solution available for every budget.
For companies, this means more choices when implementing a bike leasing program. For employees, it means access to high-quality bikes at different price points. For our planet, it means a step towards a more sustainable future.
With already 85,000 connected companies and 900,000 employees who already benefit from our services, we know what it takes to make bike leasing successful. This collaboration with Upway enables us to further expand our offering and provide even more value to the companies and employees who trust us.
Our fully digital platform makes implementing and managing bike leasing easier than ever. By adding refurbished options, we make the platform even more inclusive and accessible for different needs and budgets.
This collaboration goes beyond simply offering more bike options. Together, we're creating new standards for sustainability in the mobility sector. By extending the lifespan of bikes and making them available through leasing, we contribute to a circular economy where waste is minimized and value is maximized.
As the main sponsor of the Visma-Lease a Bike cycling team, with Wout van Aert as our ambassador, we understand the value of quality bikes. Now we can share that quality more broadly by also offering refurbished bikes that meet our high standards.
We believe that real change happens when we work together. By choosing bike leasing through Lease a Bike, you contribute to a movement that's bigger than just transportation. You choose a healthier lifestyle, a cleaner environment, and a more sustainable future.
With the addition of refurbished bikes to our offering, we make that choice even easier. Whether you're an employer who wants to support their employees, or an employee looking for the perfect bike, we now have even more solutions to meet your needs.
