USED is...
...all this and more
The modern rat-race leaves us very little time to concentrate on the important things in life. USED has a philosophy that wants life to be in harmony with the environment. This means more bike rides, less cars and a different lifestyle. USED products bring these qualities into your life.
USED also has products for this group of users. Carradice bags, Carry Freedom surf and kayak trailers, Rivet saddles for race and long distance. Our products are tried an tested in the most rugged conditions. We give you the maximum support for you to follow your dream.
A big part of the picture for USED is the bikes and kick scooters we sell to industrial customers. Big companies like Daimler, BMW, Ford and many more are using these products in their factories, to move stuff around. The load scooters are an important product for us.
