about the BICycles

Why should I buy a bicycle from you?<br />

We will work with you to find a bike that suits your riding goals. Whether that bike costs 10,000,000 VND or 500,000,000 VND , you will receive the highest level of service and care. When you buy a bike from us, we provide free mechanical adjustments for the first 5000 kms. When you buy a road or cyclocross bike from us, we provide a free basic fit session at the time of purchase. We will adjust the height, angle, and position of your new bike’s seat and handlebars so that your ride is as efficient and comfortable as possible.

What Brands of Bicycles do you sell?

We are authorized retailers for Trek, Chapter2 Bikes, Orbea, Cervelo and Electra Bicycles.

What kind of Bikes do you sell?

We sell Road Bikes, Mountain Bikes, Urban/City Bikes, Time Trial Bikes, Touring Bikes and Kids’ bikes.

Do you offer warranty on bicycles you sell?

We offer Free break in tune ups on all bicycles and free service packages depending on the value of the bicycle that you purchase.
All bicycles sold are covered under the respective warranty of the manufacturer and we will help you register your bicycle on the website of the brand in order for your purchase to be eligible for warranty claims.

Free Tune Ups? Tell me more.

When we say we offer “free adjustments” to our customers, here is exactly what we mean: If you have purchased a

new bicycle from Bicycle Roots, you can bring it back to us at any time, and we will perform the following adjustments at no charge:

  • Brake adjustments
  • Gear adjustments
  • Seat position and angle adjustments
  • Cockpit angle adjustments
  • Bolt tightening
  • Chain lubrication

We do not replace parts (such as inner tubes, tires, cables, brake pads, chains, etc.) at no charge. If you need a part replaced, then you will be charged for the part and regular installation charges.

This offer applies only to the original purchaser of the bicycle.

Do you do bike fitting?

We provide basic fit services but we do not have a full-service fit studio yet. During a basic fit session, one of our mechanics will watch you ride on an indoor trainer, while that mechanic makes adjustments or substitutions as needed. We charge 250,000VND only for a 30 minute basic fit session, but if you purchase a road bicycle from us, then the fit session is free.

Do you sell Pre-Owned Bikes?

Yes, however we only sell refurbished pre owned bikes looking for a new home. We also would be willing to help you sell your bikes on consignment. That is we evaluate the condition of the bike and the value of the refurbish. Once refurbished, we show the bike to whoever comes in looking for a pre-owned bike and you get paid the promised value of your old bike minus refurbishing costs.

Do you sell E-Bikes?

No.

about the sERVICES

Do you service/fix bicycles?<br />

Yes. Bike repair is at the heart of our business. We have a full service repair workshop staffed by professional mechanics who are eager to help you with your repair. When you come to us for a repair, you will see that our store has an “open” workshop, where customers can watch our mechanics working and ask them questions. We don’t want to keep any secrets from you and we don’t want bike repair to have a mysterious aura. We’re happy to show you all the tricks of the trade!

Do you Service only bikes purchased at THBC?

We service all kinds of bicycles regardless of where they were purchased from. We have multiple tune up options available to choose from and our team will help recommend the best tune up for you once they physically inspect the bicycle. We sometimes may need upto two weeks to turn your bike around depending on our workshop schedule, however we try to turn bikes around as soon as possible.

Do you Pack Bicycles to ship on airplanes?<br />

Yes, we do offer a “Pack to Ship” service, which includes your bike being washed and given a basic tune up, before packing it in a cardboard box, well padded and protected ready to be shipped.

Can I get instant service if I take my bike in?<br />

We are committed to have you riding back as soon as we can, however, we can only turn around your bike depending on how much work is needed to be done and how many bikes we have on the workstand due that day.

Are replacement parts readily available?<br />

We try to be well stocked in spares and accessories, but it may be possible that the compatible part with your specific bicycle may need time to be sourced and brought into Vietnam if not available locally. Our staff will inform you regarding unavailability or delays in service and we would request your patience.
