What is TPC Accepting?

We are accepting road, gravel, mountain, TT, triathlon, cyclocross, and E-bikes from recent model years.

The higher the original MSRP, the better chance of receiving an offer.

  • Bikes from model year 2018 or newer
  • Undamaged frame, and components
  • A minimum original MSRP of $2,000 or higher
    • *The older the bike the higher the original MSRP will have to be in order to receive an offer.
  • Bikes from model years 2018 or newer.
  • Name brand E-Bikes
  • Functioning motor and battery
  • A minimum original MSRP of $2,000 or higher
    • *The older the bike the higher the original MSRP will have to be in order to receive an offer.

  • A minimum original MSRP of $2,000 or higher
    • *The older the bike the higher the original MSRP will have to be in order to receive an offer.
  • We are actively buying all modern MTB, Road, TT, and Gravel wheelsets. Axle size and rim size information helps with our offer accuracy so please include it if you know.
  • For MTB wheels, 29” Boost & Superboost wheelsets are most in demand. 27.5 and non-Boost MTB wheels will not receive an offer as the demand has fallen for these.
  • Frames are held to the same model-year guidelines as bikes.
  • Proprietary and special parts for frames: matching fork, aero seat posts, integrated cockpits, batteries, and thru-axles are included in our offers and are required for submissions to pass inspection.

We are greatly limiting our offers for tubular wheels as demand for this type of tire and wheel combo continues to decrease.

Read our article on the difference between clincher, tubular and tubeless wheels for additional details before submitting your wheels.

We don’t accept items with issues that would deem them unsellable, such as:

  • Structural flaws in the frame
  • Dented, or cracked rims
  • Significant paint damage
  • Missing, or failed components including drivetrain, and E-bike batteries

Note: We reserve the right to re-package your bike if it fails our inspection and, in some cases, we will ship the item back to you. Please do not mail us bikes or gear meant to be scrapped.


Trade-in values are not guaranteed. Make sure your items are in good working condition, with all the necessary parts included for the bike, frame or wheelsets to function, otherwise we may amend the offer.

Veriff Certification

We are a committed industry leader and advocate for bicycle theft prevention. Every bicycle we inspect is verified by the owner’s ID and bicycle serial number. Your information will be kept confidential and secure via our 3rd party company, Veriff, a leader in the global identity verification service.

Once our buyers send you an offer, you will need to complete our verification process in order to accept the offer. You will need the following:

  • A valid US drivers license or passport (valid, current and undamaged ID. Photos of the ID on your computer or other device will not work, and will cause you to fail the identification process)
