Overview

Bike Club offers families new or refurbished children’s bikes and scooters online with a monthly subscription and swap-as-they-grow exchanges. Pricing ranges from £4.49 to £15.99 per month and the platform currently manages a network of 40,000 bikes. The company emphasises a circular-economy model and reports CO2 savings (336kg CO2 per bike versus ownership; 1,174 tonnes saved so far). With the new funding it plans international expansion into Germany and France and aims to grow its fleet to 220,000 bikes within three years. Founded in 2016 by James Symes and Alexandra Rico-Lloyd, Bike Club positions itself to disrupt family cycling by eliminating the need to buy new kids’ bikes every 12–18 months.
