Ride, Grow, and Choose Your Path

Cycle

This is the best part. Your child is now riding a premium, perfectly fitted bike, and you have the complete peace of mind that comes with our All-Inclusive Membership. You handle the fun; we handle the rest.

As your child grows, your Bike Equity grows with them, giving you powerful and flexible options that traditional ownership can’t match.

SWAP: The “Growth Spurt” Insurance

When you notice their knees getting a little high, it’s time to swap up! Simply log into your account or send us an email. We’ll help you apply 100% of your accrued Bike Equity as a massive “trade-in” credit towards the next size bike. We’ll deliver the new bike and pick up the old one. It’s a seamless and financially smart way to ensure your child is always on the perfect-sized bike.

The BUYOUT

Has your child fallen in love with their bike? Ready to pass it down to a younger sibling? You can choose to buy out your bike at any time. We’ll apply 100% of your accrued Bike Equity to the bike’s retail price, and you just pay the difference. It’s a flexible, affordable path to full ownership.

The RETURN

If your family’s needs change, you have the freedom to simply cancel your subscription and return the bike. There are no hidden fees or long-term commitments with our monthly plan. We’ll schedule a free pickup. It’s complete peace of mind.
