Bikeroom's quality used bikes closes a €3 million round.

From historic Italian brands like Bianchi, Pinarello, and Wilier Triestina, to high-end global brands like Giant and Trek, it's always possible to find the bike of your dreams, even pre-owned, guaranteed, and certified. Bikeroom, a marketplace for high-end used bicycles, has made this possible, having recently closed a three million euro financing round.
The deal was underwritten by the venture capital fund Azimut Eltif ALIcrowd 1, which had already invested in previous rounds, by Vesper Holding, and by other investors. The aim is to support the platform's growth and scale the site's commercial and technological infrastructure. The site aims to become the global benchmark for second-hand branded bicycles, including authentic models from professional teams and limited editions. It has attracted customers from around fifty countries, selling more than 10,000 bicycles to date.

The cofounders of Bikeroom, Matteo Maruzzi and Denis Moretti.
Founded by Matteo Maruzzi and Denis Moretti in 2020, Bikeroom has established itself as the go-to platform for purchasing new or used road, gravel, and mountain bikes, combining the quality and selection of a specialized shop with the accessibility and global reach offered by the web. With a rapidly growing community of enthusiasts and a network of partner shops across Europe, the company aims to become the largest global marketplace for premium bicycles.
The company had already raised 500 thousand euros in a seed funding round in 2023.
The funds raised in the new round will be allocated to three strategic priorities. First, Bikeroom aims to continue its international expansion, entering new markets and optimizing its local presence where the marketplace is already operational. The company also aims to keep pace with technological evolution by enhancing the platform to improve the user experience and logistics. Third, but not least, the focus is on growing the team and its expertise: strengthening key areas such as sales, technology, and customer operations is strategic to consolidating growth.
