They are powered by mere human strength without any electrically powered motors.
In recent years, different renting models have been established such as bike-sharing, in which bicycles can be rented for a defined period in exchange for a fee. These rented bikes are not included in this market outlook. Only bikes that were purchased for ownership are covered.
Structure:
The regular bicycles market covers all types of bicycles including road and racing bicycles, off-road bicycles, and special purpose bicycles. However, motorcycles, scooters, mopeds, secondhand bicycles, electric bicycles, as well as bikes purchased by bike-sharing services are not included.
Additional information:
The market comprises the number of bicycles sold, the average price paid per bicycle, revenue, and revenue growth as the key performance indicators. Revenue is derived as the product of the average price per bicycle times the number of bicycles purchased. Therefore, revenue excludes any profits from bike-sharing fees. Revenues are including VAT. The market only displays B2C revenues, hence B2B and B2G revenues are not included.
