70-year old's experience of buying an E-bike
I bought an E-bike at this Specialized store and needed a lot of guidance on how to use it (being an older cyclist, not very comfortable with using a computer/ smart phone to manage all the features of the bike. Biagio was very patient! And very good at explaining everything. Previous assistants were also very helpful and respectful of my needs too. It took 2 hours of explaining but I feel fairly confident now and know that I can ring in with any problems I have any time

Great service and fantastic choice of e-bikes
John talked me through the features of each e-bike. He really knows his stuff and couldn’t have been more helpful.
This is the fourth bike we have purchased from Cycle Revolution and wouldn’t go anywhere else.

Kind, generous, and informed team!
The staff at Giant Norwich (a branch of cycle revolution) have been so kind, helpful, and knowledgeable in the purchase of my new bike. A great service! Thank you

Good online service…
Had the product in stock when seemingly in short supply, fair pricing, delivery was on time.

Despite the website saying my bike was in stock before purchase, I was then told there was a delay in the supply and I would be contacted when the bike was ready.
My free 20 day bike insurance has come and gone and I still have no idea when I will receive my bike. It’s all a bit disappointing
Company have been in touch and clarified situation and I am now very happy with the order and expect my bike soon

Hi Jim, thank you for your review.
The bike you ordered was in stock with our supplier (Giant) rather than in the store itself at the point of your order, sorry if this wasn't clear enough for you.
I will follow up with the store now to ensure you are continuously updated. We are doing all we can to speed this up for you, however, this is completely out of our hands as we are waiting on Giant themselves.
Regarding the free bike insurance, this is 30 days so you will have a few weeks left on arrival. If you find this is not the case, please email support@cyclerevolution.net and we will have this renewed for you.
Thanks, The Giant Norwich Team.

Hi Steve, Thanks for your review.
I can see from our records that we attempted to call you on the same day you placed your order and left a message. The bike required ordering from Giant, which was also completed on the same day too. The delay is from Giants side, so it's unfortunately out of our hands. I will get the store to contact you with an update today.
Thanks, The Giant Norwich Team.

Thank you to the heroes who mended my electric bike; an unfamiliar make, needing an obscure part which had to be ordered from China. I’m so grateful for the trouble you took and delighted to have my bike back.

Why Go Anywhere Else?
I have bought all my new bikes, accessories, components and had the servicing/various repairs done at Cycle Revolution since late 2019.
Nothing has ever been too much trouble for them, they have been available for advice either in person or over the phone, have generally been able to fix a small issue upon walking in, or more larger/in-depth repairs and servicing within a good timeframe.
Basically, they have made my cycling life very simple and it turn, enjoyable.
Being based in the town it is great to have a local bike shop I know I can trust and rely on.

Only sent half of the drop out kit
Only sent half of the drop out kit, the non drive side. (It was missing the rear mech hanger and lock nut from the drive side).

Hello, thank you for your review. We apologise that we didn't send out the full kit as stated on the website. This was completely our error for missing due diligence, for which we can only apologise.
I understand the store sorted the issue as quickly as they could and that you have now had a full refund. Luckily this is the first time we've heard of this happening and will do our best to keep it that way.
Thanks, The Cycle Revolution Team.
Very helpful staff.

Excellent service!
It was great service buying a bike with Cycle Revolution. They had the exact bike that I was after. After a purchased the bike, the communication was excellent and I collected my bike within 8 days with no issues. I will not hesitate to use this company again!

First class service by Cycle Revolution
All of my questions as regarding the bike were answered fully and all the people I spoke to gave a great service. Bike was fully assembled and delivered to Scotland at a very reasonable cost.Would not hesitate in recommending Cycle Revolution and with the discount offered the bike was ideal for me.

I use cycle revolution every year with my cycle to work scheme, as do my team.
Super service, great communication & high quality bicycles. Cannot give enough plaudits for the service provided.
Genuinely nice people!
Thank you.

Excellent product at a good price
The only reason for 4 stars and not 5 is the lack of decent tracking information and the item arrived a day later than expected (it was however a bank holiday weekend so I shouldn’t be too harsh!). Otherwise it was a great experience overall and at a decent price.

Hi Paul, Thanks for your review.
Apologies if you didn't receive any tracking information, sometimes it can end up in a spam folder.
Regarding delivery times, all timings are working days only, but we will endeavour to make this clearer for our customers in the future.
Thanks, The Cycle Revolution Team.
Poor service
Bottom Bracket ordered sent in damaged box that had been cellotaped up and in a wafer thin paper bag. Not good enough for a £159 item. Wont use a again.

Hello, thank you for your review.
We're sorry to hear the packaging of your item was insufficient. This is not what we aim for as a company. I trust the item itself was in perfect condition as this is our main concern? Please email support@cyclerevolution.net with more information so we can ensure this won't happen again in the future. Thanks, The Cycle Revolution Team.
Excellent cycle store
James, Dano and team were hugely helpful in my purchase of a Cannondale CAAD13. Patient, knowledgeable and pleasant to deal with, taking the time to explain mechanics I was unfamiliar with. Great bike fit. Highly recommended!

Super quick online transaction. Had struggled to find a particular S-Works Helmet. Cycle Revolution had best price (and low cost fast delivery). Trific!
