Review summary

Reviewers overwhelmingly had a great experience with this company. Customers consistently praise the excellent service, highlighting the staff's knowledge, helpfulness, and friendly approach. Many people appreciate the competitive pricing and the quality of the products offered. The delivery service is frequently mentioned as prompt and efficient, with some customers noting the added benefit of personal delivery by a mechanic. However, some customers also noted issues with delivery addresses being incorrect, leading to parcels being returned.

Great Crew! Highly Recommended

Fantastic supportive team - kicked off with a web chat which turned into a phone call (thanks Ali!) which meant my new EMTB arrived safe and sound (hand delivered) 2 days ago. Really impressed with the South Down Bikes Storrington team. Looking forward to stopping by when I finally get on the South Down Way! Cheers
