How it works
Try a bike before you buy — the UK long-term test ride
Buying a bike is a real commitment — especially e-bikes and cargo bikes, where a one-off test ride doesn’t tell you much. Try Before You Bike lets you live with a bike for a month or more before deciding. Keep it on subscription, buy it at a reducing price, or return it for free.
Why riders choose Try Before You Bike
- Ride a bike on your actual commute — not just around a shop car park.
- No deposit, no need to commit to a purchase upfront.
- Switch bike type easily — try a pedal bike, then an e-bike, then a cargo bike.
- Buy at a reducing price if you decide to keep the bike.
- Free delivery and collection — no logistics to organise.
