About Planet X
Sheffield based Planet X has built a devoted following among British cyclists who want more bike for their money. Direct to consumer sales eliminate retail margins, and the savings show in specifications that consistently embarrass similarly priced competitors.
The clearance sales have become legendary. Planet X shifts stock aggressively, and patient bargain hunters regularly find carbon frames, decent groupsets, and respectable wheelsets at prices that seem implausible. The Pro Carbon road bikes compete with machines costing significantly more. The Exocet time trial bikes have earned genuine respect in triathlon and time trial circles. The London Road handles gravel and commuting.
Unlike purely online competitors, Planet X maintains a Sheffield showroom where you can actually touch bikes, get fitted, and test ride before committing. This combination of aggressive pricing and in person support makes Planet X particularly appealing to British cyclists who want value but remain uncomfortable with pure online purchasing. Not the most refined brand image, but genuinely good bikes at genuinely good prices.
Planet X bikes currently start from £0 across the marketplace.
What to look for when buying a used Planet X
Planet X bikes are best for value focused cyclists who want high specifications without premium pricing.
When buying any used Planet X, start with the basics. Check the frame for cracks, dents, or damage, especially around the head tube, bottom bracket, and dropout areas. Look at the drivetrain for wear and make sure the gears shift cleanly through the full range.
Ask the seller for service history and proof of ownership. Every Planet X listed on Cyclesite is automatically checked against UK stolen-bike databases, but it is always worth checking the frame number yourself too.
Typical Planet X pricing on the used market sits in the £500 to £5,000+ bracket. Anything notably outside that range is worth a closer look.
