ABOUT GOODBYE CYCLE

Goodbye Cycle is where used bikes find new homes—and riders find the gear they need, backed by people who care.

Our Story

At Goodbye Cycle, we believe great bikes deserve more than a dusty garage or landfill ending. Founded by lifelong rider and mechanic Andrew Riley, Goodbye Cycle was born out of a passion for quality bikes, sustainable cycling, and honest business.

Andrew spent years riding, racing, wrenching, and flipping bikes from his home garage. What started as a side hustle turned into a full-time mission: make high-quality used bikes more accessible, more trusted, and better supported.

From cross-country epics to downhill laps, he knows what riders expect—and delivers it.

Mission Statement – Goodbye Cycle

At Goodbye Cycle, our mission is to extend the life of great bicycles by giving them a second chance on the trail, road, or wherever your ride takes you. We are committed to making high-quality cycling more accessible and sustainable by expertly inspecting, tuning, and reselling pre-owned bikes.

We believe in trust, transparency, and performance—every bike we sell is ready to ride and backed by care. Whether you're buying your next adventure machine or saying goodbye to your old one, we're here to make the process easy, honest, and rewarding.

Andrew Riley

Owner of Goodbye Cycle | Based in Michigan

I'm Andrew Riley, the founder and owner of Goodbye Cycle — a company built on the belief that every great bike deserves a second ride.

What began in my garage as a personal project—buying, fixing, and reselling bikes—quickly grew into a full-time business. Today, Goodbye Cycle helps cyclists across the country sell their bikes with confidence, and helps new riders find high-end, pre-owned bikes at unbeatable value.

I started this company because I saw a gap in the market: cyclists needed a trusted, streamlined way to offload bikes they’ve outgrown and upgrade without the hassle. At Goodbye Cycle, we make that process simple, fast, and honest.

Every bike we sell is inspected with care. Every customer is treated like a fellow rider. And every deal is backed by the same passion for cycling that got me into this business in the first place.

Why a Used Bike from Goodbye Cycle Rides Like New

Buying used doesn’t mean sacrificing performance. At Goodbye Cycle, we make sure every bike we sell is fully dialed in and ready to ride.

Every pivot is carefully inspected, and any bad bearings are replaced. The fork and rear shock receive a full service for smooth suspension performance. We true the wheels, install new cables, and make sure shifting and braking are crisp.

Brakes are bled and tested, and we install new pads if the originals are more than 25% worn. The result? A used bike that rides like it just rolled off the showroom floor—reliable, safe, and ready for your next adventure.
