Hello there,
I'm just after some experiences with your orders of new bikes with shop pickup. I ordered a bike last Thursday and It seems like I will get it this Thursday. The guys in the shop said that it's to be delivered to the shop today and it should take 2 days to build it.
I assume they are busy atm as 2 days is a bit long.
So, any experiences welcome! :P

2 days seems reasonable. They will have more than 1 customer I guess,planned services,staff holidays etc

Jeez - I have seen stories of weeks going past.
And if you ever buy a custom bike - double the lead time they give you. You wont be far off then...0 -

Yeah, I'm not saying I have a potential horror story here, just asking around.0 -
Normally it only takes a day to build it but it takes a whole extra day to pump up the tyres.
It's your fault for ordering wheels with the bike.0 -

Oh man... but hey, I will stay positive through this adversity and think "at least my wheels will be pumped up".
Did not know it takes a day to pump them up - learn something new everyday, huh?0 -

We aim to get bikes to customers ASAP. Generally they get done ahead of workshop jobs, the bulk of which are services on heaps of junk. Building a shiny new bike is more fun and gets done a bit quicker!0
