First delivery from GreenBikeKit

I placed an order with Greenbikekit for a couple of motors, controllers etc on the 21/09. One item was urgent so I paid the slightly higher fee for the Fedex express service (2-4 days)
The response and updates from the company were very prompt, I received the tracking number for the Express service on Monday.

When I checked progress on the Fedex site it showed the Economy not Express service, so I emailed Anna, the contact for this order. She immediately apologised, saying it was an agent error and promptly refunded the difference to my Paypal account.

Yesterday (27th) Fedex delivered the parcel! It had gone through as Express despite the incorrect labeling, so it probably was a Fedex error.
The packaging was excellent, everything was well wrapped and protected, all wheel nuts washers and loose parts were bagged and the box well padded.

So far it's been an impressive service.

Delivered 24 days before you ordered Alan, amazing service! ;)

Teasing apart, it's good to learn of this excellent service, very promising.

My delivery arrived a couple of days ago. Two kits and two motors, and didn't have to pay any duty. I'm convinced that my theory is right that you only get caught for duty if you order a battery.

I placed an order with Greenbikekit on 19/9/12 prompt response to say that they had supply problems with a battery. Pleasant exchange of emails followed about a new batch they were testing this week and the order was being dispatched today. All good so far.

Please note that there's holidays in china at the moment that are affecting deliveries so check with Anna first sales1@greenbikekit.com if you are thinking of placing an order.

Sorely tempted by an Oxydrive or Alien kit but money's tight at the moment and hopeful buying from China is the compromise

Hi d8veh

The kit will / should be with me on Monday and I'll will try and find a suitable bike this weekend, so work will start (not that there's that much work) as soon as the something suitable / cheap and cheerful gets delivered.
