  • I wouldn't trust SBC Cycles with any non "out of the box" e-assist built.

    They had my Douze with MPF Drive for 3 weeks and could not get the front light to work.
    They manage to mangle the cabling for the lights so now these won't work again.
    At this point, I am just glad they didn't fuck up the e-assist.

    They tick all the hipster boxes for looks & music taste + they do "rad wheelies" outside the shop but they do not know what they are doing when it comes to anything with a e-assist - unless of course it is a simple plug & play type of build.

    And if you need a VAT invoice, be prepared to ask weekly for about 4 months.

    There's a fair amount of evidence to the contrary that I'm aware of.

  • My feedback is based on personal experience.
    I've mentioned it to them at the time and have not left any reviews on Google or similar.

    I am sure they can read the manual and put a round peg in a round hole for a brand new £5k e-bike but then again so can bike techs at Evans.

    I am not trying to get into a keyboard battle - simply sharing personal feedback.

    I think maybe it depends whos in? Ive been there a fair bit for things and occasional advice, i think many of the people in there are very clued up. However they also royally screwed me over recently with a really rookie error, that im fairly sure cant have been one of the experienced guy's doing, because it was so basic.

    I dont mean to shit on them as i still actually rate them and the shop highly, and everyone makes mistakes.
