CLEARANCE BIKES – make a profit selling the parts!

Sunday, June 22nd, 2008

Here’s an idea. Buy our ludicrously priced Gents stock clearance hybrid bike and sell on the bike parts for more than the amount you paid for it!

BIKE SPARES:
700cc Samson alloy rims x 2 - £20/pair
road tyres x 2 - £10/pair
Full length steel Front and back mudguards – £25
Steel rear carry rack – £10 – £15
Seat and seat post – £5
Dynamo light set, front and back – £7.50
Steel semi chainguard – £7.50
Shimano 6 speed rear derailleur, complete setup – £15
Brake levers – £5/pair
Bike chain – £5

There is much more to sell, it just depends how much you want to strip off. All these parts are standard, so they will be easy to sell. Everybody has wheels nicked, needs a set of mudguards or fancies a carry rack. Make it happen and make some money at the same time! All it takes from you is a little disassembly and some bubble wrap!

Please note, these prices are suggested selling prices and are not a guaranteed price. They could sell for more. That just depends on your selling skills!

**Special Offer when you buy 2 Clearance Cycles!**

Monday, June 16th, 2008

We love the fact that our Clearance Cycles have been so popular and so we have now decided to add some spice to their already phenomenal success!

Very simply – if you decide to buy more than one Clearance bike in one transaction, you will get an EXTRA £4 off each bike you order. This means the Gents hybrid bike is £95 and the ladies hybrid bike costs £106 – delivered!! These are the most affordable bikes on the market.

If you order 5 bikes or more, then further discounts can be arranged, depending on the circumstances.

Our only stipulation is that you pay using a debit card (Maestro/Visa Debit etc) instead of a credit card, as the charges for using a credit card are much higher for us.

If you want to make the most of this fantastic opportunity to get our clearance bikes, simply call us now on 0208 2655586 or use our simple, friendly Capital Callback system and let us know when we can call you.

After all, Capital Cycles Ltd was set up to get affordable bicycles to people who did not want to spend too much on a bicycle. With such offers, we are proving that we really mean it.

Clearance Cycles – a great way to get a cheap bike

Thursday, June 12th, 2008

Just in case you thought it was too good to be true, we just want to tell you a bit about our Clearance Cycles.

They are the same hybrid bikes that we sell for £140 - the reason they have been so heavily reduced (from £99 delivered) is because during our warehouse inspection, some bicycles are found to have a small scratch on the frame or a blemish on the mudguards or chainguard. Other than that – they are mechanically sound, fully equipped with all the accessories you could ever want and still carry our full 12 month warranty.

We are already regarded as the shop for selling Discount Cycles, so for us to offer a further reduction from our already insanely low prices seems mad. Well, perhaps we are a little bit bonkers. You see, we are perfectionists and anyone who has bought from us will testify to that. If even a single washer is missing from your bike when i gets to you, a replacement will be sent first class that very same day.

As a total bonus, we even offer a further £4 discount off our clearance price if you order 2 bikes or more! To do this, simply: a) find a friend/colleague/lover who also wants a bike, b) phone us (0208 2655586), c) pay by debit card and d) get excited.

If you have any other questions, or just want to chat about our bikes, just give us a call – we love talking.

NEW – Folding Bicycle Pedals, coming soon!

Wednesday, June 4th, 2008

We realise that for some of you, compact bikes need to be even more compact. That is why we are about to introduce a very simple line of durable, reliable and easy to use folding bicycle pedals. All you will need to do is unscrew the old ones (and store them somewhere for back-up) and tighten on the new ones. Easy as that!

The price – they will cost around £7.50 a pair (to be confirmed) - and that price will include standard 1st class delivery to UK mainland addresses! If you live outside mainland UK, simply contact us for carriage rates.

Available – around 3 weeks.

The Beautiful Dutch bicycle

Thursday, May 22nd, 2008

We love cycling, but more than that we want people to be able to buy the style of bike that they most want.  Sure, the market for space ship material mountain bikes with 24 gears and F1 suspension is big, very big in fact. But we know how many people really want to own their own, timelss classic. The bike to be proud of, a bike that makes you feel FANTASTIC when you are cycling through town or the park. The only problem is, that up until now they have been prohibitively expensive – to  the point of making them almost exclusive.

The Capital Modern Dutch Bike epitomises everything we stand for as a company - simple, beautiful, affordable. We are here to get every kind of bicycle to everyone who wants one.

Clearance Stock – limited opportunity!

Monday, May 19th, 2008

We have recently undergone a thorough warehouse stock check and we have decided to offer you the opportunity to buy a small quantity of our beautiful bikes for an even lower price.

ANY bicycle which when inspected, was found to have even the smallest blemish or mark on it, has been set aside for ‘clearance’. There are very few which did not pass our exacting standards, but for the ones which did, we have made them available for £99 – including UK mainland delivery of course!

They are still mechanically perfect and even still carry our 12 month factory warranty. The ONLY reason they are on clearance is because there has been minor damage to either: frame paintwork, chaincover, mudguards or even just the cardboard box!

These will not be around for long, so if you are looking for a bike, even to have just as a back-up, I suggest you grab one of these right away – clearance bikes.

Wicker Bicycle Baskets coming soon!

Thursday, May 15th, 2008

It is with enormous pleasure that we can announce that we think we have successfully found an absolutely superb supplier of wicker bicycle baskets to complement the Classic and City bike Range.

They have leather handlebar straps which allow them to attach universally to any bicycle with wide enough handlebars. The size will be  approximately: 28cm tall, 45cm wide (side to side) and 38cm long (front to back).

They will be available by by the end of June and should cost in the region of £25 – including carriage of course.

They have been picked for their suitability to the Classic and City Range.  Just so you know, installing it will require rehousing the front dynamo light.

We will keep you posted as we progress.
