About Pedal Local

Built for riders, by riders.

Pedal Local was founded in Atlanta, Georgia with one simple belief: buying a used bike should feel as trustworthy as buying from a friend. We built a marketplace that combines the reach of an online platform with the trust of a local bike shop.

Shop checked

Every bike on Pedal Local is checked by a local partner shop before it goes live. No guessing, no surprises.

Protected payments Coming soon

We're building checkout that holds your payment until you've seen the bike in person at the shop and confirmed the handoff.

No Shipping

Every transaction happens locally. Meet at a partner shop, inspect the bike, ride away confident.

"We believe every rider deserves a trustworthy way to buy and sell bikes locally. Pedal Local exists to make that possible in every city in America."

Partner shops are the backbone of Pedal Local. We work with independent bike shops to provide inspection services, host buyer-seller meetups, and earn revenue on every transaction they facilitate. It's good for shops, good for riders, good for cycling communities.
