Environmental Pledge

Buy one. Plant one.

550,000+ trees planted and counting

Every time you buy a Reid bike or scooter, we plant a tree through our reforestation partner, veritree. It's our way of giving back to the environments we love to explore and helping support restoration projects around the world.

As a bike brand, we believe cycling can play an important role in more sustainable transport. Our environmental pledge is one part of Reid's commitment to building a more sustainable future for cycling.

Our approach to sustainability

As a global bike brand, Reid is committed to supporting more sustainable ways to travel while recognising the environmental impact of manufacturing. Our Buy One, Plant One programme is one way we're working to give back to the environments and communities connected to the places we ride.

Why we plant trees

Bikes and eBikes can play an important role in more sustainable transport, but we recognise that manufacturing products still has an environmental footprint. As a bike company, we spend our days thinking about the places people ride, explore and enjoy. We want those environments to be protected for future generations too.

That's why we created our Buy One, Plant One pledge: For every Reid bike or scooter purchased, we fund the planting of a tree through our reforestation partner, veritree.

Working With veritree

We partner with veritree to help direct our tree-planting contributions towards restoration projects where they can have meaningful environmental and social benefits.

Why Mangrove restoration?
