How has business been for you over the last 12 months? To be honest, if we said the past 12 months have been easy, we’d be lying. While the pandemic initially brought a surge in business for us, once things started returning to ‘normal’, the bicycle industry faced significant challenges. We found ourselves grappling with overstock and struggling to source parts from suppliers in a timely manner. Despite the challenges, our commitment to delivering personalised experiences and fostering a sense of community within the cycling world remained unwavering. Our dedication to customer satisfaction has earned us positive feedback and repeat business, reaffirming our belief in the value of our approach.
What are your plans for 2024 and beyond? As we look ahead to 2024 and beyond, our focus is on continued growth. Despite the challenges of the past year, we remain optimistic about the future of the electric bike industry and are committed to staying at the forefront of it and continue serving our customers with excellence.

What makes your business unique? Our uniqueness stems from several key factors that set us apart in the electric bike industry. Firstly, as a family- run business, we bring a personal touch to every aspect of our operations. This makes for a warm and welcoming atmosphere, where customers feel valued and well-cared for.
Secondly, our commitment to excellence is evident in everything we do.
