Certify the bikes.
Keep the riders.
Partners apply the trustabike standard to certify a bike today — including bikes from your own stock — and become the workshop its owner returns to for every service, re-certification and repair after that.
The standard is ours. The customer is yours.
We supply the checklist, the grading and the certificate. You do the work you already do, on bikes you're already handling.
Run the bike through the checklist in your own workshop — frame, drivetrain, brakes, wheels.
Your findings become a graded certificate tied to the frame number, carrying your name as the inspector. We review before it goes live.
The buyer activates a Passport — their first month free. Your work is the first entry in it.
They return for an annual service and re-certification — and the record keeps your name on it.
One inspection. A customer for the life of the bike.
Most certification schemes pay you once and end there. Because a Passport stays with the bike through every owner, the bike you certify today keeps coming back to a Partner — and when it sells, its next owner starts the loop again.
Whichever business you run, there's a fit.
Certification either adds to what you already do, or gets you a better price for what you already sell.
Workshop
A mechanic or workshop that services and repairs bikes but doesn't sell them.
Shop
A business that sells used bikes and runs its own workshop.
Online seller
A business that buys and sells bikes through eBay and similar sites.
You can certify the bikes you sell.
You don't have to be a disinterested third party to use the standard. What you can't do is call it independent — so we don't. The certificate names you as the inspector either way, and says which of the two it is.
Help shape the standard, before it's set.
We're onboarding a small number of partners first, so the checklist and process get shaped by the people actually doing the inspections.
Get set up first
Trained on the checklist before wider rollout, with first pick of local certification requests.
Shape the checklist
The standard is still being refined — pilot partners feed back what works on the shop floor.
First in line for Passport
When Passport launches, pilot partners are the network its members are sent to.
