Service Plans & Subscription Coverage
1. Service Plans Overview
MOTACYCLES LTD offers subscription-based Service Plans for bicycle and suspension maintenance ("Service Plans"). These plans are designed to spread the cost of maintenance and provide priority access and benefits over a fixed term.
Service Plans are available with monthly or annual payment options, but all Service Plans operate on a minimum 12-month commitment unless otherwise stated.
2. Minimum Term & Commitment
All Service Plans require a minimum commitment period of twelve (12) months from the start date of the subscription.
By purchasing a Service Plan, you agree to remain subscribed and liable for payments for the full 12-month minimum term. This applies regardless of whether the plan is paid monthly or annually.
Early cancellation during the minimum term does not end payment obligations for the remainder of the 12-month period.
3. Pricing & Payments
Monthly plans are billed in equal monthly instalments over the 12-month term.
Annual plans are billed as a single upfront payment covering the full 12 months.
Prices are clearly displayed at the point of purchase, including total commitment value.
Any introductory pricing or promotional offers will be clearly identified and time-limited.
4. Services Included & Exclusions
Each Service Plan includes specific services and allowances as detailed on the Service Plans page.
Unless explicitly stated:
- Parts, consumables, and replacement components are not included
- Services are subject to fair use and manufacturer service intervals
- Unused services do not roll over beyond the plan term
5. Cancellation During the Minimum Term
You may request cancellation at any time; however:
- The Service Plan will remain active until the end of the 12-month minimum term
- You will continue to have access to all included benefits during this period
- No refunds are issued for unused time within the minimum term
If the total value of services already used exceeds payments made at the time of cancellation, any outstanding balance must be settled.
6. Cooling-Off Period
You have the right to cancel your Service Plan within 14 days from the date the plan starts, without giving any reason.
If you cancel within this 14-day cooling-off period:
- You will receive a full refund if no services have been provided; or
- If you requested or authorised services to begin during the cooling-off period, you will be required to pay for the services actually provided up to the date of cancellation. Any refund due will be reduced by an amount proportionate to the work completed.
By booking or authorising services to be carried out during the cooling-off period, you expressly request that services begin immediately and acknowledge that you will be responsible for the cost of any services provided before cancellation.
Refunds will be processed using the original payment method and within the timeframes required by law.
7. Renewals & Reminder Notices
At the end of the initial 12-month term:
- Your Service Plan will not automatically renew for another fixed term unless explicitly stated at checkout
- If auto-renewal applies, this will be clearly disclosed before purchase
Where applicable, we will:
- Send renewal reminders before the end of the term
- Provide a new 14-day cooling-off period for any renewal
8. How to Cancel
Service Plans can be cancelled by:
- Emailing us at sales@motacycles.com
- Via your online account (where available)
- Contacting us via WhatsApp using the details on our Contact Us page
- Calling us on the phone number listed on our Contact Us page
We will acknowledge cancellation requests within 24 hours and confirm:

Service Booking
MOTACYCLES LTD operates a calendar-based workshop booking system. A limited number of service slots are available Monday to Friday.
- Green dates = Available slots
- Yellow dates = Limited availability (please be mindful when booking multiple items)
- Red dates = Fully booked
The date you select is the date your item(s) are scheduled for service. You may send your bike or component in advance of the booking date, but it will not be worked on prior to the scheduled day.
By making a booking, you are reserving a dedicated workshop time for servicing and/or any warranty repair of your bike or component.
Booking Multiple Items
- One booking = One item (bike or component).
- If you're sending multiple items (e.g., bike + fork + shock), please book a separate workshop slot for each item.
- If choosing a courier collection for multiple items, you only need to book one collection request. Everything will be collected together and returned in one box.
MOTACYCLES LTD accepts no liability for any delays to your scheduled booking date or any knock-on effects resulting from such delays.
Service Warranty
All service work carried out by MOTACYCLES LTD is covered by a 3-month workmanship warranty, starting from the date of repair.
If you experience issues caused by a defect in workmanship during this period:
- Return the item to us, and we will repair it free of charge.
This warranty does not cover:
- Improper installation, adjustment, or maintenance.
- Misuse, abuse, or accidental damage.
- Normal wear and tear, component failures, or manufacturing defects (these may be covered under the manufacturer's warranty, not our service warranty).
Important: It is your responsibility to inspect and test your bike or components within the warranty period.
The service warranty applies to the owner at the time of service and is non-transferable.
Service Payment
Payment is due once the job is completed.
If we find that your bike or component needs extra parts or labour outside the original booking, we will contact you first to explain the situation and gain your approval before proceeding.
Accepted payment methods:
- Debit/Credit Card (Visa, Visa Electron, Mastercard)
- PayPal
- Bank Transfer (Contact us for details)
Service Shipping (If Shipping to Us)
If you are sending your bike or component to MOTACYCLES LTD for service:
Delivery Timing:
- Your item(s) must arrive at least one working day before the scheduled booking date.
- If your bike/component arrives late (even during the scheduled day), we cannot guarantee same-day service, but we will carry out the work as soon as our workshop schedule allows.
Packing Requirements:
- All items must be securely packed in bubble wrap (do not tape directly onto the frame, forks, shock, or other components).
- Place items in a robust, transit-safe box.
- Please review our 'Packing Your Bike/Components' guide on our website before shipping.
