Recommerce platform and finance provider for used motorbikes

Superbike is the UK’s leading recommerce and financing platform for used motorbikes. The business deploys a digital-first model, operating across the value chain (purchasing, refurbishment, and sales). It also operates the UK’s leading motorbike financing broker.

The business is disrupting the traditional and fragmented motorbike market through a combination of 10+ years proprietary data and technology, established D2C methodologies and a well invested platform & infrastructure network. Superbike provides customers with an innovative, straightforward, and trusted process to sell and buy motorbikes.

Since Livingbridge’s investment, the company has completed acquisitions to accelerate the scaling of purchasing, scaled its processing capacity / national brand presence with further sites at Donington and Bradford, and continued to build upon its proprietary data and technology assets.
