"I got $1,850 for my Trek and walked out with a new 2025 Trek Fuel the same day. So much easier than trying to sell it myself—and I didn't have to wait weeks."
— Sarah M., Seattle, WA
Traded: 2021 Trek Fuel EX 8
"The instant valuation was spot-on. No haggling, no back-and-forth. Took my bike to the local shop, they verified it, and I upgraded to a full-suspension rig in one afternoon."
— Tom K., Boulder, CO
Traded: 2020 Specialized Rockhopper
"I was skeptical about the trade-in value, but it was actually higher than what I'd been offered by three other shops. The whole process took maybe 10 minutes."
— Alex P., Asheville, NC
