With all of our bikes, parts are mostly interchangeable so if you're after trying a particular set of forks / wheels / groupset / bars / brakes / shock on a bike then we can where possible set it up to have those things on it.
Sometimes we can get other sizes and models off our suppliers but bear in mind that there are over 40 dealers after the same set of bikes so it's not always possible but we will try.
All demo bookings must be paid for at the time of booking, and if you subsequently buy a bike from any of our shops after the demo (within 3 months) we will refund you the £100 demo fee.
To inquire about a demo bike or to book one you'll need to give us a ring on 015394 31245 and select the Grizedale option.
Be warned, we will have a good chat with you to ensure you're genuinely looking at buying a bike and not just going on a Lake District jolly - we have hire bikes for that purpose!
