What is the guarantee of repurchase of Tuvalum?

The repurchase guarantee is an exclusive Tuvalum program that applies to any bicycle bought in Tuvalum as of January 1, 2023.

It is very simple: when you buy a bicycle from our catalog, we give you up to 18 months to be able to change it for another of our catalog (conditions apply).

It is an exclusive program that we have developed to offer you a unique level of trust and guarantees in the second -hand sector. Can you imagine being able to buy your bicycle today knowing that you can return it at any time during the next 18 months? Thanks to this program, when you buy a Tuvabici you have our guarantee that we repurchase it at any time for 18 months so you can change it for another. In practice it means that you only pay for the time you have been using your bicycle, recovering the rest of the money so you can choose another.


Is the repurchase guarantee the same as a rent or a rent?

Unlike rent or leasing, you are still the owner of the bicycle from the moment you buy it until you decide to change it.

Tuvalum offers you visibility on the guaranteed repurchase value of your bicycle at 18 months so you can buy with the confidence that you can return it. And best of all, you are not obliged to change it, so if you like it you stay.

Tuvalum's repurchase guarantee only applies if you meet the following conditions:

- The purchase option by Tuvalum can stop (temporarily or indefinitely) at any time without prior notice due to the excess of product availability, consumer demand, own processing capacity, or to the general market conditions that can determine the purchase capacity of Tuvalum.
-Electric bicycles (both E-MTB and E-ROAD) are not welcomed by the repurchase guarantee.
- This offer applies to bicycles bought through any domain of Tuvalum.
