Don't buy, rent: Circular children's bicycle

Every year, 1 million bicycles are discarded in the Netherlands. Choose a used bike or a BikeFlip subscription and save resources and CO₂.

Description

What we find interesting: There are approximately 23 million bicycles in the Netherlands, which equates to an average of 1.3 bicycles per person. More than 1 million bicycles are discarded annually. Many of these bicycles are still perfectly usable. Fortunately, many used bicycles are offered on Marktplaats.

But with BikeFlip, you also choose a sustainable alternative: a subscription to a refurbished children's bike that grows with your child. By choosing circular solutions like BikeFlip, you save resources, reduce emissions, and contribute to a more sustainable future.



3 more reasons to rent a circular children's bike:
  • You always have access to a bike that fits your child's growth, without having to buy a new one every time. That saves a lot of money. - Children only use a bike for an average of one year: by then they've outgrown it and the bike is too small. Then it just sits around rusting away.
  • If the bike breaks, Bikeflip will come to your home to fix it.
