All our bikes before sending have gone through our own extensive safety inspection tests and we will do our best to ensure the bike is as close to a rideable state as possible.
Please note some bikes may need some basic assembly – if you are unsure or get stuck please feel free to contact us or call us on 0141 559 5454 and our friendly team can talk your through the process.
Please also remember that not all bikes come with pedals as this is usually the case with higher end bike models as this is left to the rider to decide which pedals they like to use, please check the bikes description online to see if pedals are included.
