Still chance for bike shops to benchmark their business with CIN’s 2025 Market Data

There’s still chance for bike shops, workshops, mechanics and online bike traders to take part in this year’s CIN Market Data, and in return receive detailed insights into the market.

Benchmarking performance and focus

With the bicycle trade eagerly awaiting an upturn in fortunes after a difficult few years, arguably data from the retail front line has rarely been as important as it is now. Often independent bike shops are just that – businesses working independently with little opportunity to benchmark their performance and focus. CIN’s Market Data aims to help independent bike shops overcome this challenge – those taking part in the anonymous survey will have access to the full report results when published.

The CIN Market Data covers:

  • Which brands and suppliers are in ascendance with the UK’s independent bike shops and workshops
  • Turnover and profitability averages in the market
  • Sales trends by segment
  • Staff salary and workshop rates
  • Online trading
  • & much more

Access to the fully anonymised information is free for participating survey respondents, once all responses are gathered and collated. Respondents will be vetted. The study is open only to UK-based independent bike shops, workshops, mobile mechanics and online outfits.

Limited data will be released in CIN in the months after publication, detailing the markets progress.

If you have any questions, please email the editor here. The completed Cycling Industry News 2025 Market Data will become available to purchase for non-participants later in Q1 2024.
