Led · Equity · Jan 2026
Founded in 2018, Munich-based Rebike Mobility buys used e-bikes from corporate leasing fleets, reconditions them at its 100-person facility in Kempten and resells them online and in Decathlon retail locations. The company currently operates four shop-in-shop stores within Decathlon’s German sports superstores and plans to open four more in March and at least ten by year-end, including a flagship inside Berlin’s Alexanderplatz location. Rebike processed 25,000 bikes in 2025 and aims to refurbish 30,000 in 2026. Revenue exceeded €40 million last year and is projected to top €50 million this year. The startup employs about 150 people in total. Future expansion plans include additional refurbishment sites and entering neighboring markets such as France, Belgium and Switzerland in partnership with Decathlon.
