Sustainable mobility: Rebike and BusinessBike give e-bikes a second life


Kempten. At last, used and professionally refurbished e-bikes become available in the popular company bike leasing programme. Rebike, Germany's largest e-bike refurbisher, and BusinessBike, a company leasing specialist, are creating a real circular economy with this offer – and a cheap and sustainable alternative. Customers benefit in many ways: the offer is large – and the refurbished e-bikes in the company bike leasing programme are already available in Germany at rebike.com/de/business-bike.

Employees get an attractive alternative when looking for an e-bike: from now on, BusinessBike's company bike leasing programme will also include refurbished models from the German market leader Rebike. This means that the advantages of a refurbished e-bike can now be combined with those of a company bike. E-bikes that are returned to BusinessBike after the end of the leasing contract are professionally refurbished by Rebike in their Premium Refurbishment Programme. After the process, which involves over 100 steps, the e-bikes are as good as new and up to 40% cheaper than buying a new one. They are now being offered again in the company bike leasing programme and are getting a second lease of life, so to speak – customers save again compared to buying directly. The process can be completed on the rebike.com website.

At the same time, the cooperation is a real milestone for sustainable and circular economy: the two companies are closing a real cycle. Thanks to the high quality standards of Rebike's premium refurbishment, a multiple cycle of refurbishment and leasing is also possible – a real win-win situation for the environment and for all e-bikers.

Sustainable consumption: re-use of e-bikes
Re-use has been a trend for smartphones and laptops for a long time already. But 37% of all prospective buyers can also imagine buying a refurbished e-bike (Focus E-Bike Study 2023) – for sustainability reasons and thanks to a growing range of offers.

"We are seeing more and more people thinking about the impact of their purchasing behaviour and looking for alternatives. Especially with e-bikes, refurbishment and reuse is a very smart choice: customers get a technically equivalent product at a significantly lower price, while also protecting the environment. Reuse is therefore a trend, and refurbished e-bikes will soon be part of the standard range in the bicycle industry. We are now taking the next step with our partner BusinessBike: switching to a refurbished e-bike will become even more attractive with company bike leasing. Our customers benefit in many ways – and e-bikes will be used for much longer," explains Rebike CEO and co-founder Thomas Bernik.

This opinion is shared by Rolf Höring, Managing Director of BusinessBike: "The collaboration with Rebike is another milestone on our journey to make the bicycle an environmentally friendly alternative that is easily accessible to as many people as possible, while making a positive contribution to our planet. Sustainability and circularity are central to our mission. That's why we are delighted to be able to give a second lease of life to bikes that have been returned from company bike leasing programmes. Every refurbished e-bike that finds a new owner saves resources and is a step towards a greener future."
