So, a new bikes dealer has been super friendly and helpful, happy to chat on occasion on multiple visits. One used dealer is useless, and the other is a bit lacklustre. I’ve been popping in a few places to get a feel for things - both staff and bike options.
The new bikes dealer has been great since day one (even before my CBT) really soft-sell and very clear that so long as the system confirms I have my full license I can go out all day on a test ride.
The dodgy place, good luck getting any straight answer.
Just seen these remarks about the lacklustre place. I guess I won’t be buying from there (not least cos I’ll be newly qualified).
Is that common for anywhere else? No test rides pre-purchase/new-riders.
