IN BRIEF
OneUp Components, the mountain bike component maker based in Squamish, British Columbia, has opened ReRide, an online marketplace dedicated to its own second-hand parts. The principle fits into a single sentence on the site: buy authentic used OneUp parts, or sell your own and choose between cash and store credit towards a future purchase. According to Bikerumor, the seller gets 100% of the sale price if they opt for in-house credit, against 80% in cash, and OneUp sends them a prepaid shipping label as soon as a part finds a buyer. The buyer, for their part, filters the catalogue by category, by size and by condition — new, excellent, good or well used.

A dropper post that has done two seasons, a barely scratched pair of pedals, a hub taken off after a wheel change: used mountain bike kit has long been resold on general classified ads, where the buyer judges from photos and from the seller’s word. OneUp Components is taking the matter into its own hands and opening its own marketplace, reserved for its parts.
ReRide, OneUp’s second-hand marketplace
The site is called ReRide and lives at reride.oneupcomponents.com. Its home page sums up the offer without frills: “Shop authentic used OneUp parts, or sell your own and choose between cash or OneUp credit toward your next purchase.” On the seller’s side, the promise is symmetrical — turning your OneUp parts into cash or into credit “toward your bike’s next upgrade”.
Bikerumor, which spotted the platform on 26 August, writes that it had been launched the previous day and that the catalogue already held “quite a few products listed”. The outlet sums up the brand’s intention this way: “Buyers get verified products at low prices, sellers get cash or OneUp credit, and products stay in use on the trail for longer.” Technically, the site runs on Treet, whose support address appears in the structured data of the pages.
In-house credit at 100%, cash at 80%
This is the point that sets ReRide apart from a classic classified ad. According to Bikerumor, once the part is sold, “sellers can choose between 100% of the sale price in OneUp credit or 80% in cash”. In other words, the brand pays a 20% premium to whoever accepts payment in vouchers — a mechanism that brings the seller back into the shop rather than letting them walk off with the money.
The seller sets their price and can switch on an automatic markdown: again according to Bikerumor, the option “reduces the price of the item by 10% each week until it hits a pre-set minimum”. The listing therefore depreciates on its own down to the chosen floor, which saves the seller from watching over their offer. Once a buyer is found, OneUp sends a prepaid shipping label. That is also what the brand holds up against classified ads: quoted by Bicycle Retailer, it promises a protected transaction where the buyer receives the item promised, in the condition promised, or a full refund.
What the marketplace covers
The buyer browses the catalogue by category, by size and by condition, with photos and descriptions, and the parts are graded into four levels of wear: new, excellent, good, well used. The range covers the bulk of the OneUp catalogue, from clipless pedals to dropper posts by way of hubs.
That leaves the geographical scope, and for now it excludes French readers: the ReRide site states that “this program is available in the US and Canada”, while announcing future international launches without dating them. Bicycle Retailer confirms it — the programme is available in the United States and Canada, with the brand hoping to expand to other regions. OneUp Components is based in Squamish, British Columbia, and presents its products as “mountain bike components designed, tested, and supported by riders in Squamish, BC”.
