Recumbent Trike / Adaptive Cycle Business – For Sale
Business Description
This is a rare chance to acquire an established recumbent trike, hand cycle, and sports wheelchair dealership with supplier relationships already in place as an authorized dealer. The business serves a growing niche of adaptive athletes, recreational riders, and cycling enthusiasts.
The current owner purchased the business for over $150,000 just two years ago, but due to a demanding full-time career requiring frequent travel, the business has been nearly shut down this past year, aside from small online orders. Because the majority of sales historically came from in-person test rides, which the current owner has been unable to provide, revenues have been limited.
This creates a unique opportunity for a motivated buyer to step in, reintroduce test rides, and restore the business to its proven sales model at a deep discount compared to the prior investment.
Sale Includes:
• Professionally designed website & domain
• Business phone number
• Trike display racks
• Specialized tools & parts inventory
• Existing supplier/dealer relationships
Highlights:
• Authorized Dealer – Supplier partnerships already in place
• Established Brand – Serving a loyal, niche market
• 5-Star Google Reviews – Strong reputation and credibility with customers
• Flexible Setup – Operate from home or scale into a storefront
• High Growth Potential – Proven demand for in-person test rides and sales
Areas for Growth:
• Reintroduce Test Rides & Stock Inventory – Historically the largest driver of sales
• Repair & Tune-Up Services – Ongoing maintenance is in high demand among recumbent trike owners
• Expanded Marketing – Social media, cycling forums, and adaptive sports partnerships
• Broader Product Line – Accessories, adaptive equipment, or e-trike models
• Events & Partnerships – Group rides, cycling expos, and local adaptive sports organizations
This business is perfect for a retired or semi-retired individual seeking a flexible, part-time stream of income while staying active and engaged in a rewarding niche. It would also be a great fit for cycling enthusiasts, adaptive sports advocates, or anyone who enjoys working with people in a hands-on environment. With low overhead, established supplier relationships, and proven demand for test rides, the business can be operated from home, scaled up gradually, or expanded into a full-time venture depending on the buyer’s goals.
Reason for Sale: Owner’s full-time job and travel schedule prevent proper operation.
All offers considered. Serious buyers only — inquire today for details.

Grand Total = $3,335 - Market Outlook / Competition
- The recumbent and adaptive cycle market is a growing niche serving recreational riders, seniors, and those with adaptive needs. Traditional bike shops rarely stock these products, while this business benefits from strong supplier ties and specialty equipment most competitors can’t match. The market is underserved, creating excellent growth potential for an operator who combines demos with online sales and marketing to capture both local and national demand.
- Opportunities for Growth
- Opportunities include stocking more inventory since customers generally prefer in stock trikes rather than waiting for custom builds, offering test rides, and adding repair or tune up services for recurring revenue. Online marketing, video demos, and targeted ads can expand nationwide reach. Partnerships with adaptive sports programs, senior centers, rehab clinics, and cycling clubs along with community demo events can further boost visibility and referrals.
