I always follow good deals in this service and. Finally, I got two helmets for a good price. Nitro helmets are worth paid money. I suggest everyone to try in stock before purchase because dealing with helmets is taught job. Anyway, the service offers good prices
Bought a 400 quid scooter which broke after a week. Had trouble getting any response from them. Eventually got a repair only to have a serious mechanical failure resulting in an accident. Not impressed with lack of customer care

Worse place to order and the worst customer service ever so rude brought a electric scooter didn't last no longer than a week they sent me out a multi reader that didn't work, then someone was meant to turn up to take it back to shop no one came to collect them trying to ring them can never get through absolute joke the way they speak to you on phone telling me to go buy my own multi reader and battery so my son got no birthday present and not even a refund this company need to be taken to trading standards just ripping people off and the company need to rethink who they have answering their phones never met ruder people I will be taken further action against this company
Had purchased several quads over last few years, you definitely need to be hands on with tools, most recent quad built for this xmas would not start, and managed to break the start pull spring, on checking, the fuel line just at carb end had a 90 degree kink this was enough to cut fuel completely, once rectified starts and runs easily, if you have a none runner, worth a wee look before making a complaint.
This company is a full on joke I ordered a £600 quad for my son for his bday over a month ago and I email them and the useless customer service ie dumb $#*! tammy and to find out they have blocked mine and my partners numbers please do not buy from this joke of a company there stuff is faulty aswell and harms children
Steer well clear of this company. Can't do enough for you when you are buying from them but you will be left high and dry when things start to go wrong. Poor cheap quality goods, we purchased two bikes and both incurred identical problems within a matter of weeks. We are now in the proccess of legal proceedings. Appalling that companies like this can actually get away with treating customers like this. Poor show funbikes!

Absolute joke! Paid for 2 electric scooters totalling over £300 and only received one! I have been chasing for over a week to find out where the missing scooter is to be told that they are still chasing the courier for proof of delivery. The item has clearly gone missing or unattended and I am left to chase daily with absolutely no update! My son is now left with 8 days until his birthday and I've no money to buy anything else before! Ruined a kids birthday! Cheers Funbikes. NOT RECCOMENDED

I called them up to check stock, was told they were expecting new stock in early December but they had a kids yellow quad if I wanted it delivered the following week. Call to order was placed Friday and the quad arrived the following Wednesday:-) Couldn't be happier, son loving his quad. Service was honest, polite and efficient - couldn't have asked for more, thank you.
Waiting over 4 months for them to send a prepaid return label to return a VERY faulty scooter. Not safe to ride and light was on permanently... shocking shocking customer service from over 6/7 staff I've dealt with
Wouldn't bother with this company
I got my son a bike christmas paid £400 for this bike to have a faulty battery from day 1, they expected me to do test on the bike and battery and still nothing been resolved even tho ive been on the phone to them since January and now we are in september, the battery has been sent back twice now and they want me to pay for a new battery i don't think so I could understand if this happened after the warranty run out but no it was from day 1. I have seen a lot of people now having this same issue do dont buy a bike or anything g from this company they are a joke and waste of time. Customer services are a joke and andrew the manager says he wants to get the problem solved as its been going on long enough but then tells me today I can buy a battery off them for £100 I don't think so. You have all been warned
Brought M2RF160 expecting it to be brand new. It was assembled already, off thr lorry wrapped badly, covered in dust, fuel filter had been put on upside down and the carb is leaking petrol after 2 rides. Stickers at ththe r rear of the bike are worn. Call to the manager

Shocking service! Starts off fine when there selling couldn't do more for, but once sold expect the worst customer service ever and the rudest manger I've ever met... felt like we had been ripped off by a dodgy car dealer.
Nearly ruined my sons birthday with the cheap quads they sell! AVOID AT ALL COSTS

Appalling company. I bought an electric bike, it was faulty and - finally - it was replaced. The replacement had faulty brakes - incredibly dangerous given it is designed and marketed to children - finally the brakes were replaced. I say finally in that it took dozens of emails in which Funbikes seems to attempt to avoid their legal duties under the warranty. The battery now does not, after less than 3 months, and the same situation again - interminable emails, repetition and obfuscation. Deeply deeply appalling customer service and poorly made products. Avoid avoid avoid.
Tip for consumers:
Don't

We find this company a disgrace
We find this company a disgrace, we bought a non starter bike almost one month ago but still doesn't work. Their customer service team will tell you we are very sorry but you are on you own. They haven't offered exchange, return, refund on anything all they say is open this part or that part and fix it yourslef.
I won't recommend this to anyone, they are fraud, selling unchecked Chinese products!
AVOID AT ALL COST!
My son bought his first ever dirt bike. First time he rode it the sump plug came out, called them they sent out replacements and it was leaking oil they had to send ou 2 more and still did not fix the problem. Due to this incompetence the engine is knackered no apology no exchange or refund offered he only had it 3 months
DO NOT BUY FROM THESE PEOPLE
Tip for consumers:
Worst customer service ever

Dirt bike which was useless off road
I brought a quad from fun bikes it was broken on arrival and had missing parts they refused to exchange it and left my son with no birthday present! Don't buy from them.
Tried to order on their Internet page - NOT POSSIBLE.
Thought I telephone their Derby office - got through to P****s*** - pay my money which they took TWICE - telephoned my bank and stopped one but the other is PENDING.
Fun bikes asked to pay direct into their bank? BUT MY BANK SAID NO - DO NOT DO THAT.
Their showroom is Closed and will not be re-opening IS THIS COMPANY GOING OUT OF BUSINESS?
Bought a mini quad bike for my sons it ran once and wouldn't run again after the 6th time of taking it back got fed up with traveling and costing money we asked for a refund they said no as they don't do refunds they would repair the bike but I would have to pay yet more money. They never set up the bike properly and its faulty I wouldn't recommend this shop or there goods to anybody STEER WELL CLEAR RIP OFF...

This company and more importantly, its products are atrocious.
There is an age old saying "you get what you pay for" and that is correct, but products should still be fit for purpose.
I won't go into all the details, but the main problems I had with the MXR mini-dirt bike, were engine cut-out and accelerating of the bike with a closed throttle! It's a potential death trap and at one practice track we went to, my son was holding the bike while it was running, when it decided to accelerate of its own accord and carried on running up the track, veered off and was luckily caught by a spectator before it hit someone.
The company did not care about this at all, even when I asked them if they did! They also said that they can't see any problem with the bike, so there's nothing they can do.
The quality of it is beyond cheap. The fixings, the build, everything and if anyone reads this and is still wondering about buying from this company, please, please do not.
There is lots more to say about them and their handling of the situation, but all I can say is just don't ever buy from them. You will never benefit in anyway, shape or form. You've all been warned and if you still need further guidance, just focus on the negative reviews and their poor rating on TrustPilot, Google and SiteJabber

Don't buy product from this company.
If you need any parts after sales, can't provide due not have stock.
Practically if have any issue, you can put in bin few hundred pounds.
Went to the shop on 4hr round trip to get a bike for my grandson for Christmas
The bike I bought had no stickers with it but I was told no problem we will forward them to you when they arrive, but after leaving shop having paid the amount asked for and also questioned if the amount was correct and then getting receipt and leaving shop, the or person who sold me the bike then rang me up and said he made a mistake and would like me to pay the extra to cover his mistake. When I refused because it wasn't my mistake and was already back on motorway by then anyway. But the assistant said well if you don't pay the £30 we won't send stickers for the bike.
I then looked into wether I was right or wrong the just I'm getting is if you've paid for something in a store and left the shop don't then go back and pay anymore.the assistant was also very uniformed on clothing sizes by say the clothes only go in Xs s m l xl so on, but on the packaging clearly states ages ment for.
Absolutely one of worst experiences ever had spending a fair amount. Never again

Purchased a battery quad for sons 4th Birthday arrived fine and on time and well packed. Followed assembly instructions. For the record comes with battery pack installed. Charged as per instructions for when my son got up. The quad crawled basically. So we thought we must of not connected it to the charger properly so charged it again as per instructions again. Still no joy! Phoned funbikes we got told to check every battery individually with a battery tester. Are you serous I said we don't have one and are you serious it's brand new. Also we informed them the motor was noisy but on lifting the back end of the bike and twisting the throttle the back axle was buckled which maybe causing the fault. Phoned customer services back for more ignorance theres nothing we can do you have to bring back! How we are miles away from you and it was sent mail order. I tried leaving a comment on there Facebook page not an offensive one they have now deleted and blocked me. We now have been told we have to send it back for them to look at. We were told in an ignorant manner there nothing we can do. Well there is stop selling machines when you don't have procedures in place to rectify problems and talk to customers in helpful and civil manner. I could take the bike being faulty if you had handled the problem with empathy and politeness! So we are quadless with a devastated birthday presentless little boy. We now have to spend our evening trying to pack up a defective brand new quad bike. Stay well clear if I was thinking of purchasing a quad buy local!
I bought my 4yr old a mini quad in October for Christmas I had a mechanic set my quad up and my nephews there's was working fine but myn has never work also come with a popped tire we thought it was the pull start as it was very stiff but I got q new pullstart and never worked I email bikes4fun and all they said was seek mechanical help and bikes are all checked before sent which is obviously not I emailed them 3 times n still no reply inn the end I told them they was taking piss and I got a reply the next day saying they will not message me again as they don't tolerate abusive behaviour I am absolutely gutted for my son might as well frew £220 down the drain

The most awful company we've ever dealt with. Bought a £500+ electric motor cross bike for our young son for Christmas. On Boxing Day things started to go wrong with it!
Since then he's only rode it on the garden at weekends for a total of 6 hrs and it has been out of action due to things breaking more than it has been ridden.
It has been returned twice for repair and although it's clearly not fit for purpose fun bikes have refused to refund or credit note the bike even though it is well within warranty. Funbikes have even acknowledged that the repair work performed by their technicians has lead to further faults but they refuse to take any responsibility. Finally we had to nag with more emails and phone calls to get them to return the bike to us, to find parts are still not repaired on its arrival.
So we are left with a faulty, dangerous bike that is not fit for purpose and our very upset son still has no Christmas present.
We will be looking for a more reliable, honest company to replace our sons Christmas present to a safer, better quality motorbike. Leaving us very out of pocket.
Funbikes will not be receiving any further custom from us when we purchase other vehicles in the future and considering we have 3 young boys all into motorbikes and quad bikes, that's many years of custom lost.
We have contacted trading standards and we will be taking the matter further.
As a company they are rude, have ignored our emails, not returned phone calls, have absolutely no morals and have not given us any satisfaction or confidence that this issue will not be ongoing. They make decisions solely to benefit their business not their clients, without any justification. Their products are cheap and poor quality and their customer service is atrocious. A total rip off!
Unless you want to waste your money on goods that only last a day and are dangerous, do not buy from this company!
I will be going trading standards if they continue to ignore my emails bike is new and faulty wished I hadn't bothered n
