Refurbished by Upway
At Upway, every used bike goes through an inspection and reconditioning by a professional mechanic, in order to offer you high quality bikes, in a condition as close to new as possible.
STEP 1
Mechanical and electronic inspection
Each bike received is subjected to a detailed analysis of 20 inspection points by our mechanics.
This step allows us to verify that there is no structural damage on the frame, the safety points, the motor or the battery. It also allows us to make an inventory of the repairs and replacements of parts to be made in order to give a new life to each bike.

Mechanical repairs
Once the bike is ready to be refurbished, our team proceeds to the repairs and replacements of the mechanical parts which require it, in order to propose you bikes whose state is as close as possible to the new one:
- Replacement of wearing parts that are not in equivalent condition to new (e.g. tires, brake pads, cables and sheaths, chain, stand)
- Bleeding the hydraulic brakes
- Possible change of bearing
- Crankset or steering threads if required
- Spoke tension adjustment
- Lubrication of parts
STEP 3
Electronic repairs
The diagnosis of the motor, battery and electronics of the bike allows us to determine any necessary replacements, reconditioning or repairs of parts.
Motor and electric assistance
- Full engine diagnostics via specialised software
- Repair or replacement of the torque sensor or pedal sensor (where necessary)
Battery
- Diagnostics via specialised software (number of charge cycles, cell life)
- Charger and connector test
- Reconditioning or replacement (when the state of life is too low for prolonged use with more than 80% of the initial autonomy)
General electronics
- Checking, repairing or replacing cables and electronic parts
- Software updates
STEP 4
