Checked online stock and placed an order for a pair of Continental UST tyres at a good price. Thought things were to good to be true when 24 hours later an automated email informed me of no stock. Reminds me of the 1990s when this practice was common place. (read more)

Superb quality product with perfect palm/ulnar area padding - very nice to wear and very good to use. Version purchased was 2012 version - price offered was brilliant, less than half the cost of 2013 model in competing stores. At the price paid, there is not a better cycling mitt on the market and I have no negative comments. (read more)

Excellent company to deal with, friendly, competitively priced, and fast delivery. What more can one ask for. The purchased products were just as stated on their website, can't say that about some other companies I've dealt with. I felt completely confident when dealing with them; so much so I have already recommended them to my friends. I will certainly deal with them again. Well done Singletrack Bikes! (read more)

Service was absolutely brilliant. KNew what bike I wanted and after speaking to they, they knew what upgrades I needed/didn't need. The bike only took 10 days to be made up with the upgrades and delivered to my door and that was over the Good Friday Easter Monday too. Everything was sorted over the phone and email and was really quick reliable service. Will not hesitate to use single track bikes again. Brilliant (read more)

This pump arrived from Singletrack the next day, they offered the best price. The pump is worth every penny, performs well and packs small. Best choice if you need a compact pump without a direct connect to tyre valve. The built-in extension hose has a good quality adapter which fits Presta or Schrader valves. The telescoping design means you have high volume and high pressure in a single action. 32mm diameter, 200mm long. Good choice travel pump (read more)

I recently ordered a Continental Der Kaiser tyre which unfortunately wasn't as described on the website.

I tried to order something from singletrack bikes recently. The order status remained 'not processed' for nearly a week, at which point I tried to cancel my order by email. I tried to call them numerous times beforehand but just received a voicemail messsage explaining that they were busy serving customers in the shop. They haven't made any attempt to contact me to explain what is going on. Very frustrating. I've since placed a new order with Spa Cycles, and it was delivered the next day!... (read more)

Hi there,
I am very sorry to hear about your negative shopping experience with us.
We are up to date with emails and communication at the moment and every customer gets email updates on the progress on their orders so I suspect our emails have been going into your spam folder as we are pretty good at progress emails. I currently have no outstanding order cancellation emails so I'd be keen to hear from you to find out what has gone wrong and where.
There are only 2 of us here and we work really hard to try to get it right, but sometimes something goes wrong and there is usually a good explanation and we like to keep our customers happy.
Best Regards
Dave

I was looking for an inexpensive showerproof jacket to wear on my bike when I came across the Polaris Aqualite which seemed to fit the bill. Having read some of the reviews online I was really pleased to find that Singletrack Bikes were selling it at half price, whereas all the other outlets were selling it or very near the RRP. I was even more pleased to find that having ordered it on Tuesday night it arrived on Thursday. It's a great little jacket, understated in a simple block colour... (read more)

My partner was after a GPS thingy. . .I ordered it online, as this site had the best price I'd seen ! Paid for it, then realised that the shop was fairly local, so phoned up & asked if we could collect. They didn't have the model we'd ordered in stock, but would have it in the morning the following day. My partner went to collect & was given an upgrade at no extra cost.

I ordered a set of gloves from Singletrack bikes, primarily because they were a couple of pounds cheaper than anywhere else for the same gloves. I was dubious about whether the gloves would arrive before the weekend, but to my delight they arrived on the Friday, so I had them for the weekend. Not much more that I can say, as I didn't have to contact Singletrack for any reason, and the gloves fit well, so I have no need to return them. They were packaged adequately, so no problems there...

I remember discussing this with you via email so I am very familiar with your order. You ordered on a Thursday from a web page which said 3-4 working days for delivery on that particular item so you should have been aware of the dispatch time. The 6 days you quoted I'm afraid is an exaggeration as it was the following Monday morning that you were complaining about having not received your order having only been 2 working days from placing your order. You have also taken my quote in your review from my email out of context as where it says 3-4 working days for dispatch customer do place orders knowing they will wait this time.
All the best

Hadn't used singletrack bikes before, however, was led to their site through google as they had the best price for the item I was after. Item was delivered a day or two later, well packaged, all in good order. What was particularly refreshing was receiving a retail packaged item (mtb shifter) which included cables inner and outer, stops ends etc, instead of plastic bagged oem items, (sometimes inferior) which most large bike websites are now selling. Good prices, reliable delivery. Will... (read more)

Hi there, thanks for your review. Please note we take all feedback seriously.
I would like to say in our defense these occurences are very rare. It is a lot of work to maintain accurate stock levels due to not only selling on the website, but in the shop, on ebay and amazon, etc so keeping track between all of those locations is more complex than you might think.
Also there are returns to consider being booked back in properly to the correct place and other factors which create errors. There are something like 15,000 product codes on the system and while we are proud of how well we manage, we are of course open to human error which will occasionally happen.
We are very sorry though that we let you down. I can assure you it is not common place here.
Best Regards
Dave
