The bicycles They have always been characterized by providing freedom and comfort to those who use them, but there is also talk about the preservation of health after the physical effort that is made to move. On the other hand, there is the aspect of environmental conservation as it is a type of vehicle that does not pollute, that is cheap and sustainable.
All these factors influence the sale of bicycles to become an excellent and profitable business idea. And there are already entrepreneurs who sell them with models that really are amazing, but there are also better and more amazing ones due to the boom of the customization of bikes as an added value to sell more.
It should be remembered that cycling is a lifestyle, and therefore there are many people who require them for various activities. For this reason, the most convenient thing is to segment our business according to the type of clients, offering personalized bicycles for executives who need to go to work (this is mostly seen in Europe but it is already expanding throughout the world), for professional athletes or fans of this sport, for children, for young women, for older adults, etc.
However, there are also stores that allow customization to be made by the clients themselves according to their tastes, choosing the color or size of the bicycles as in the case of Strada Customs whose models are quite colorful. There are even those who buy the parts to assemble them at home or have them made to order.
We also see shops where you can contact the managers to customize it as you want, we have even known that some customers prefer to plating their bikes with gold or mahogany wood.
But one of the things in common in all these stores is the offer of accessories that complement your purchase such as bells, baskets, helmets, gloves, lights, security locks, bags or saddlebags, etc. Thus the business diversifies and can earn much more money.
Perhaps it seems like a good business idea to also be able to rent them and with it try to get a quick income. This activity still takes place but we must take into account who our clients will be and the possibility of selling them to those who rent them to us for certain periods of time at attractive prices.
As you will see, it is an original idea to undertake and you will surely consider investing in this business model that is already being consolidated.
