https://www.adrenalinatv.co.uk appear have a good stock of Haibike spares and you don't need to be a member of a "buy a bike from me or else club"

thats where i get my parts from now and if not on there page can get any haibike part and price match martin at ebike shop.

also had free postage with the bolt i needed for my bike.

my bike is also from ebike shop and has it on the down tube but he will not even sell me any parts for it and as the rrp of my bike was £5500 quid he just takes the p.

my bike was 2nd hand with just 160 miles on it when i had it with all receipts paper work ect and he was still not interested as never bought the bike dir from him.

Another vote for Adrenalinatv here. Always very helpfull.
They must be loving all this?
I'm so baffled by e shops business attitude?

Bookmarked!

Just as a comparison, the Greek distributor which I asked about warranty for both bikes told me all I needed to have is the warranty page stamped and written and they will honor anything that may go wrong

In this day and age of internet selling dealers have to give good and Honest Customer service.
Those who don't cannot expect to stay in business for very long.

I live 45-60min drive from them, but Martin wasn't prepared to offer any discount or discuss price before test ride, so I cancelled test ride, and that's when he got stroppy as I cancelled appointment. He should have at least offered a small discount to cover my fuel costs/time, then there would be something in it for him & me.

Did you really ask him for a discount to cover your time & expenses for driving to his shop?

I'm not defending the guy, I don't know him and have never dealt with him, but I can understand why he would be unwilling to pay you to come to his shop!

I was also put off from arranging a test drive with Martin at ebikeshop.com, as I didn't like the fact that you had to purchase a bike from him to be able to purchase any accessories or have any bike serviced by him. I wanted to buy an e-Bike, not join a religious cult.........

It seems he wants everything his way, which is very brave these days of fierce competition. I had heard his pre-appointment test rides are very hard sell, and not many people leave without leaving a deposit, so I'm glad I didn't go for test ride.
I purchased a bike from a non-specialist e-bike store, and so far I have been very pleased with the customer service and support.

I never try haggling a deal until after i've had a test ride, its only after the test ride that the dealer can see a possible sale on the cards. You are then in a much better position to get a deal of either a discount or extras thrown in or even both. This also applies to cars & motorcycles.
Of course, some dealers aren't prepared to haggle a deal no matter what..... but that's their loss and i just walk away.

i must ask morrisons for a discount next time i shop there

 

[soundwave]

i buy 1 get one free at the self serve checkout at tesco

 

[Vasilis_Pap]

I don't expect a shop to 'help' me come down to their shop for a discount. I travelled 1.30h from Newcastle to York to see and test the bikes. Didn't ask for a discount or petrol expense for it as it was my choice to go to the particular shop. It's the afters ales that worried me. But I agree with the others above. I wouldn't expect any shop to compensate me for coming to have a look at the bikes.

No discount on my bike, but I did get some cheap peddles, it was his last one and now they are sold on on the overvolt fs500 for the year.

 

[Paul smith]

No peddles Thats like buying a brand new car with no fuel in the tank .

newboater when you next go to Morrisons I'm coming with you as I have never thought of asking them for a discount.

No fuel = no charged battery, that's bad enough. No pedals is just profiteering.

bike without pedals weighs less. Marketing people love it, the shops love it too.
