Trade In Your Used Bike in Sarasota and Upgrade to a New One

Easy bike trade-ins. Fair values. Trusted local expertise.

If you’re thinking about upgrading your bike, trading in your current one is one of the easiest and smartest ways to do it. At Playtri Sarasota, we make used bike trade-ins simple, transparent, and stress-free. We don't do consignments. We don't do cash offers. That's not our business. We want to get people riding! So we offer fair trade-in credit you can apply directly toward a new bike that fits your goals.

Whether you’re a seasoned cyclist, a triathlete, or someone ready for their next step in fitness, we’ll partner with you to find the right solution for your budget.

How our used bike trade-in process works

Trading in your bike should be easy. Here’s how it works at our Sarasota bike shop:

1. Bring your bike into the store

2. Our team evaluates it in person

3. We use 3rd parties like Bicycle Blue Book to help ensure fair, market-based values

4. You receive trade-in credit toward a new bike

There’s no waiting, no online listings, and no uncertainty. You leave knowing exactly what your bike is worth and how it helps you upgrade.

What bikes are best for trade-in?

We’re especially excited to see well-maintained road, triathlon, and performance bikes. Older carbon road bikes and tri bikes are some of our favorites. Many still have excellent performance potential and make fantastic options for riders looking for quality at a more accessible price point.

If you’re unsure whether your bike qualifies for a trade-in, bring it in anyway. We’ll give you an honest assessment and talk through your options.

Looking for used bikes for sale in Sarasota?

The flip side of trade-ins is one of the best-kept secrets in the shop.

We get incredible used bikes in regularly, and they sell fast. Sometimes they’re gone in less than 24 hours, before we even have time to list them online. That’s why stopping by the store is the best way to see what used bikes we currently have available.

If you’re shopping on a budget or simply want a great deal on a quality bike, visiting the shop in person gives you the best chance to find something special.
