Pre-Order

With Pre-Order, you can purchase the latest items added to our store in advance of them arriving with us.

Your Pre-Order is prioritised (at no additional charge); meaning that as soon as the product arrives with us, we can wrap it straight back up; ready for collection via Click & Collect or despatch to you — it often never even hits the stock room shelves!

Pre-Launch

With Pre-Launch, the date when we expect to receive the product ourselves is still a little too hazy to be confident in accepting Pre-Orders.

So, instead, you can submit your email address against the item you are interested in and we will email you as soon as stock arrives on the system.

Estimated Delivery & Collection Dates

Estimated Delivery & Collection Dates are given on Pre-Order and Pre-Launch products. They are for indication purposes only and can change at any time without notice.

The dates we provide are based on indications given by our suppliers. Whenever we get updated information from our suppliers we will endeavour to update the Estimated Delivery & Collection Dates provided on product pages.

We estimate this will be ready for despatch to you or collection via Click & Collect on Undetermined

Returns and Exchanges– for electric bikes and accessories

If you need to cancel the order or make an exchange under the distance selling regulations you must notify us within 14 days of receiving the item after which you will have a further 14 days to return the item. To do so please download the return form, complete it and include with the returned item. It couldn't be easier. We will process your exchange/refund as soon as we receive and open your return.

Items must be returned to the store you bought it from or your nearest store if purchased online. Shipping costs are paid by the buyer and are non refundable. If shipping costs are subsidised the actual shipping costs incurred will be recovered from the original payment before any refund is issued. Any charges incurred by us will be recouped before a final eachange or refund value is settled.

Items must be returned in their original condition complete with all packaging, manuals, labels etc.

Custom, customised and special orders cannot be cancelled or returned. Riese & Muller eBikes are always configured to customer specifications and are therefore special orders and sales are final.

Used eBike Returns - We don't want you to be stuck with a bike you don't feel is right and so we accept returns for used bikes up to 28 days after purchase on the following conditions: 1. The condition is like new 2. All components and component packaging are present 3. Our actual costs (not the subsidised amount you may have paid) for shipping, customisations and £10/mile of use will be charged for (minimum £100) along with a £50 restocking fee. 4. Used eBikes can only be exchanged and not refunded and this is entirely at our discretion.

Faulty Items
Faults - If your order arrives damaged or developes a fault we will use our wealth of experience as the UKs' very first ebike specialist to solve the issue quickly for you. Based on our support call history less than 16% of cases have required a visit to one of our stores.

If you need any assistance we are here to help (even out of hours) simply contact, your nearest store or use our contact form.

Opened eBike Parts

We cannot accept returned eBike parts if the packaging has been opened. This is because components connected to faulty bikes may be damaged. To avoid disappointment we have a no nonsense professional diagnosis service available at all of our stores for a very reasonable set fee.

Weight The most accurate way to determine any bike’s weight is to have your local dealer weigh it for you. Many brands strive to list the lowest possible weight, but in reality weight can vary based on size, finish, hardware and accessories. All Giant bikes are designed for best-in-class weight and ride quality.
