Shopping for a new bike this Easter bank holiday weekend? Then you should certainly consider visiting Decathlon UK. Not only should you consider their in-house bike brand Van Rysel's pro-level bikes and equipment at affordable prices. But their market-leading BuyBack scheme can quite literally put cash in your pocket to buy your next bike.

If you decide to trade-in this Easter weekend, Decathlon are offering an extra 20% bonus as a gift card, on top of any cash you get for your BuyBack. Which, if you're considering something like our best overall budget gravel bike, the Van Rysel GRVL, could make upgrading very affordable. This offer started on the 30th March and runs until the 12th April.

If that wasn't enough, Decathlon is really looking to supercharge your Easter; anyone who completes a BuyBack between the 3rd & 6th April is entered into a prize draw to win 1 of 5 £1000 vouchers.

If you're not familiar with Decathlon, £1000 is a lot of cash to spend in their stores. Not only can that get you a bike like the Triban RC500 hybrid, but it'll also get you all the kit you need to go with it. It could also kit out your entire family with camping equipment, one of those trendy roof tents, or take a big chunk off something like the Van Rysel RCR Pro!

How does Decathlon's BuyBack Scheme work, I hear you ask?

It's actually very simple; get an estimate by completing an online form at Decathlon. Head over to your local Decathlon store, where their in-store experts will complete the evaluation. At which point you will receive your cash within as little as one hour! Basically, in the time it takes for their mechanics to give your new ride a little tune-up, it's ready to be ridden away. Don't forget you can use that 20% bonus to grab yourself some accessories like the Van Rysel RCR Mips, which is a favourite amongst the CW tech team.

The best part is they accept 50 different items across more than 15 sports, so it doesn't have to be an old bike you trade in. It could be anything from GPS watches and computers to tennis rackets or golf clubs.
