Primeau Vélo is proud to present our all new Certified Used Bike program. Our used bikes are fixed up, cleaned and put back to their best state possible to provide you with the best riding experience possible at the best price possible.
Demo bike, used bike and store bike; what are the differences?
Demo bike: A demo bike is a bike that was only used for a few rides, during an event, or having belonged to an employee who doesn’t ride that much. Typically, our demo bikes have very little signs of wear.
Used bike: Used bikes are bikes that previously belonged to an employee, a customer or a PVR/PVD team member and have been used for over 1000 km. These bikes usually have more cosmetic wear, but function like new thanks to the work of our experienced technicians.
Store bike: Store bikes are bikes that have never been used, but have a few signs of cosmetic damage due to sales floor manipulations. These are the closest to brand new you can get.
Upgrades, fixes and sale
Our experienced mechanics go over every used bike to bring it to its best state possible, both cosmetically and functionally. All wearable parts are inspected and replaced if needed. This includes but is not limited to the chain, the chainrings, the cassette, tires, and more. For an exhaustive checklist, check out our Used Bike explanation page.
Once up to date, the bikes are photographed in our professional studio, with a special focus added to all cosmetic wear.
Once photographed, we list our used bikes on the website. Each used bike has its particularities, which we make sure to list and describe. However, there might be some details that fall through. Therefore, we recommend you check out our used bikes in store before purchase.
How do we determine the price?
Each used bike is unique, prices are therefore established according to each bike. Factors that influence price are: mechanical inspection, replacement parts, mileage and cosmetic damage.
