PRODUCTS CATALOGUE

  • I have a technical question about a product or products on the site.

RCZBIKESHOP does not offer the same technical support qualities as most specialized sites. Our main focus is on the sale of mountain bike and road bike parts as well as complete bicycles at very low prices thanks to our "private sales" concept. As we are not technicians, we answer your questions as well as possible on the basis of the information we have.

In addition, because of the large quantity of e-mails we process daily and to save time for You and us: We first invite you to visit the manufacturer's website available in the "BRANDS" tab.

If despite your visit to the manufacturer's site, any question remains: Please send us an e-mail (or fill in the contact form). We will be pleased to answer you and advise you. We remind you, however, that the information we have is often limited. As the products are often offered for private sale, we do not have the products in stock to check.

As we are a small team, we cannot check the weights of the products or take measurements. That's why we don't provide this information. Nor do we mention the year of the products, unless this information is expressly specified by the supplier. Therefore, returns will not be considered as errors on our part, but as a change of mind.

For possible purchases of clothing or shoes, we advise you to try them in store beforehand, then order them. Indeed, sizes and sizing can vary according to the brands. A size M of any givenbrand may, for example, correspond to a size L of another brand. This is also the case for shoes. RCZ cannot under any circumstances be held responsible in the event of an error in your size or fit.

The customer remains solely responsible in the event of a purchase not adapted to his needs or the purchase of an item incompatible with other items purchased on www.rczbikeshop.com or other items already in the customer's possession.

  • I want to know the duration and conditions of a guarantee of the products on the site.

All products sold on our site have the "manufacturer" warranty. In general, this period is 2 years from the date of purchase, except for so-called wear parts (chain, cassette, brake pads, bearings, cable assemblies) which have a 3-month warranty.

Some of the bicycles we sell are covered by the lifetime warranty. It is the customer's responsibility to check with the brand and register their bike online. In the event of failure to register, RCZ cannot be held responsible.

  • Poor Settings: tire pressure or fork / shock exceeding the recommended limits, tightening or fixing a component does not meet the recommended tightening torque (eg, seat clamp, stems)
  • Misuse or non use of the product for your practice
  • Poor maintenance (components not lubricated, use of high-pressure cleaner, accumulation of external dirt (sludge, debris)
  • Damage due to the intervention of the buyer or a repairer on one or more products (brake bleeding, fork / shock)

To learn more about return procedures in guarantee, please visit our paragraph "Service & Returns”

  • Are all products shown in your website in your stock?

We offer two types of products:

  • the products available immediately with the mention "in stock" on the product sheet
  • products for private sale with "20 working days" or "6 weeks" delays on the product sheet

The items in stock are sent to you as soon as they are prepared by our logistics department in order to guarantee you the best possible delivery times. If a product is no longer available, then it becomes invisible on our website. As soon as we are replenished, then the product becomes visible again.

Products sold privately, with deadlines mentioned in the product sheet or in the newsletter, are sent once we receive them from our suppliers. The announced deadlines are estimated and may be longer or shorter than expected.

  • Can I order yellow-framed products and green-framed products together?

You can, but please note that the order will be split in two, and will be transformed into two orders (and shipping fees will be due twice).

  •   If I add products from different stocks to one cart, will I be able to benefit from two different discount codes?

No, even if your order is split in two, only one discount code can be used for both orders.

  • Can I choose two different delivery addresses for my two orders?

No, the delivery address must be the same for both your orders. You will not be able to have one order delivered to a certain address and the other order to another address. If you choose to have one of your orders delivered by Mondial Relay, you will be able to choose the delivery point.

  • Is it possible that there are errors concerning product photos or information on a product page?

All products sold on www.rczbikeshop.com are presented with the greatest care. However, please note that the photos are not contractual. We invite you to refer to the product description. In addition, human errors may occur or changes may be made by our suppliers without them informing us. In addition, the technical information we put on our product sheets is the one provided by our suppliers.

Because of the multitude of makes and models we offer and the technical complexity of some products, we advise our visitors to send us an email to  info@rczbikeshop.com for any requests for clarification or advice. The customer remains solely responsible in case a purchased product is not suitable for its needs or conflicts with other items purchased on www.rczbikeshop.com or already in possession of the customer.

In no event shall the responsibility of NBD S.àr.l. be engaged.

  • Is it possible to receive a paper print catalogue?

We have not printed in paper format our products catalogue. We ask our customers to consult our online catalogue directly on our website and use filters (left column) in order to find  items that fit your needs.

  • If I don’t find a product I would like to buy on your website, are you able to perform a special order to one your suppliers?

In general, we can’t perform small specific orders to our suppliers because one of the reasons we are able to offer you attractive prices is the fact that we perform high volume orders to our suppliers in order to guarantee best purchase prices, and so better purchase prices for you too.
All products which are not visible on our website are not available for purchase.

  • Is it possible to book an item without ordering it?

Unfortunately we can’t accept booking wothout ordering because this will disrupt our stock management and our availabilities.

 

ORDER

  • Is it possible to order by phone?

For organisational reasons, we don’t accept orders placed by phone. The only one way to order is through our online sales website.

  • I have validated and paid my order and I made a mistake in the order. Can I change the order?

If you have validated and paid your order, we receive your order already encoded.
Unfortunately we are unable to intervene and make any modification in any order already coded
So we thank our customers before submitting your order, check carefully the items of the "shopping cart" (number, size, color, etc..), prior to validation.

  • I have validated and paid my order and I made a mistake in the order. I can cancel it?

After the validation and payment of your order, we proceed to the establishment of your invoice. An invoiced order means that your payment has been recorded and your order is being prepared. We can sometimes cancel your order and refund you in the method chosen when placing the order, within 1 to 20 business days.

  • I have validated and paid my order and I forgot to add the discount code. Can you apply it, or can you return me the discount?

If you have validated and made the payment of your order, our service receives your order form already encoded. We can refund you the difference if you forgot your discount code once the order has been sent.

However, we cannot add points if you forgot them when placing your order, because we cannot modify an order that has already been entered.

In any case, we invite you to check your order before validating it.

  • I have just performed an order, and  I receive few hours or days after a special offer by mail which includes items I have ordered but with more interresting price. Will you refund the difference?

We can’t grant you retroactive refund on our special prices. The order price correspond to the price for each item at a given time. We often send you emails with our special offers valid for a specific period, and you are so advised to take this opportunity to buy products you need during this specific validity period.

  • When I validated my order, I opted to pay by bank transfer. I changed my mind and I wish to pay by credit card. How to proceed?

You simply send us an E-mail (or use the contact form) and tell us your order number. Upon receipt of your message, we will cancel your initial order and will confirm this by e-mail. Then you have just to put a new order and select the desired payment method.

DELIVERY

  • Is it possible for me to choose to pick up my order directly from your facility?

For organisational reasons, we don’t offer our customer the opportunity to come and pick up their order directly from our facility. We have made the choice to offer you a drop-off points delivery (for countries in which Mondial Relay has developped its network) or door to door delivery. We have decide a very attractive delivery cost policy in order to allow you to receive your orders free of charge from very low orders thresholds.

  • Is it possible for me to choose a delivery time slot?

Organisational constraints of our logistics partners do not allow them to offer you precise delivery time slots.
For France, Luxembourg and Spain, you are advised to take the advantage of our Mondial Relay partner and its wide drop-off points network to pick up your packages if you are not often present at home.
For the other countries, you are adviced to be delivered to your work place or to trust person house who are most present at home if you have this opportunity.
But in any case, our partners who deliver to your home offer several deliveries for the same shipment.
