The Global Bicycle Purchasing Index (GBPI) is the leading indicator for the international bicycle industry. Rather than reacting to sales figures, the index captures trends as they emerge by analyzing orders and procurement decisions in Asia, Europe, and other key markets.
This global approach provides stakeholders with early guidance based on real business behavior. Developed jointly by Bike Europe, EUROBIKE, and IFH Cologne, the GBPI is a strategic tool for navigating a fast-paced, interconnected market.
"The Global Bicycle Purchasing Index (GBPI) gives us access to the industry's pulse – it’s an essential tool for understanding and detecting market trends as early as possible.”
