Just a quick email to say thanks to Andrew, Ian, and David for sorting out the two Spesh Stumpjumper FSR frames last week. They arrived as promised on Friday, were built up on Saturday, and duly given a 20 mile thrashing on Sunday! Both Scott and I were deeply impressed with the bikes, and within 30 mins of riding them managed to put in a personal best on Strava down a trail we must have ridden over 50 times, so definitely a measure of the quality of the bikes!

Many thanks,

Hi Antony,

I just wanted to write you a quick note to say thank you for all your assistance when handling my recent purchase of the Epic Comp. I’m pleased to report that the bike safely arrived and looks even better in the flesh than it does in any of the pictures that I had previously seen.

Hi, ive just received my specialized camber elite 2011 off you guys, and would like to say how well i felt treated on the phone by your salesman (Anthony).
I had phoned a few other places before you, and it was this reason i chose to buy from you.
The bike arrived in perfect condition, and the next day, as i was told.
Ive been out on it today and it rides perfect.
I will recommend you to other people for sure.

Hi

Just a quick e-mail to say thanks for the prompt attention provided when i
ordered a Specialized Hardrock SE bike from yourselves on Monday morning
of this week.

The bike was ordered on Monday, delivered on Tuesday and is being ridden
today (Wednesday)!! What a fabulous service you provide.
I shall have no hesitation in promoting your business to friends and
family in the future and it was the positive experience that i had a few
years ago when i bought a Marin bike from you that prompted me to return
to you this week - and the excellent service is still being provided!!

Once again, many thanks and well done!!

I would like to extend my personal gratitude to Antony and Jane. Additionally, i don't normally have the time or indeed the inclination to convey my gratitude to a supplier, but in this case i have to make an exception, Bike Scene has provided me with exceptional Customer Service, for me it is a very rare occurrence to deal with a supplier who is a specialist in their field and who employs such wonderful, enthusiastic and knowledgeable people, so double respect and a big salute from me.

To all at Bike Scene

I just wanted to say a big 'Thank you' for all your help this weekend with getting me back on the trails. Anthony went above and beyond to help with fixing my broken Hope pro 2 axle.

I must say your after sales/customer service reminded my why I decided to travel past a lot of other bike stores to purchase my Orange 5 almost 18 months ago now.

Thanks again for all your help always first choice for advice & a reliable service, just wish you were a little closer to Gateshead.

Cheers!

Dear Bike Scene,

Just a quick note to say - my epic evo arrived yesterday - all is fine with it.
I thought it was very well packaged and secure.

Thank you also for sending me the spare tubes - they arrived in the post today - unexpected but a nice touch.

This is the first bike, I have bought through mail order/ web, and thought the whole process was very smooth and straight forward.

Looking forwards to getting out on it now.

Thanks again,

To all at Bike Scene.

Just a quick note to thank you all for your exceptional service
last week. I thought I was pushing my luck slightly to try and
order some new bars and stem on a thursday afternoon for riding
on Saturday but after a quick phone call, my new FSA Bars and
stem arrived before lunch on Friday as promised, all at a bargain
price too!

Your site has been added to my favorites and I will definitely
recommend you to any friends who are looking for new gear.

I look forward to popping into the shop when I'm next over that
way and look forward to buying from you again.

Many thanks

Dear Sirs,

I just wanted to write to say a big Thank You to your oultet, and to
David in particular.
As a 50+ I recently made the decision to take up mountain biking. I live
in Darlington so went in and spoke to the 2 or 3 shops here, seeking
advice on costs, models, etc. and left each one feeling more deflated
and confused than before I went in. Then a friend suggested your shop,
so off I toddled one Saturday morning allocationg 30 minutes. Your
Assistant David was that thorough and helpful that I was in there nearly
2 hours, but left having placed an order for a new Specialised
Rockhopper and being totally convinced that the decision was right and
that I knew what the next steps were, including gear I needed.
I subsequently took delivery of my bike, have had masses amount of fun
on it and it has been in for it's free service (again all done with
fantastic helpfullness). Every step of owing a bike has been a greater
pleasure than I imagined, and the help and support from your staff has
been fantastic.
Thank you very much.

Yours

Tony

Just wanted to say what a pleasure it was to be able to walk into a shop and receive the service I did on Saturday. Very rare these days that a person will actually go through in detail about the product you are buying. Managed to get the bike out on Saturday for a 20 mile ride and I couldn't be more happier with my choice and the extra equipment I bought. I will definitely be recommended you guys to anyone that asks me about bikes or needs any advice on them.
