BikeBiz Bicycle and cycling retail news
Batribike has said it has seen a high uptake in its demo bikes scheme, following its launch to dealers in March.
Dealers choose two bikes from band A and one from band B, giving a total of three bikes. The bikes are then invoiced to be paid at the end of October with a significantly increased margin on those three bikes.
“The scheme has had a high uptake from our dealer network. It is a win-win situation for us all,” said Batribike general manager Sam Coulson.
“Dealers have bikes in-store to demonstrate to potential customers and can then order in bikes from the Batribike warehouse. We have good stock levels and offer a next day delivery service (Tuesday to Friday).
“We have had significant expansion in our dealer network over the last couple of years and are looking to continue this trend. The success of the scheme has meant that we are now extending it to cover new dealers.”
Batribike is an electric bike brand based in Lincolnshire, serving an established network of dealers across the UK.
