Undecided: is this a good idea or not..? Hmmm. Opinions please.

Here’s the press release:

DING DONG GIANT CALLING

Giant take on home delivery with the launch of Home Set Up a new service for online shoppers.  Home Set Up gives more options to customers when making major buying decisions on the internet – you can now order your bike direct from Giant’s Click & Collect website at shopgiant-bicycles.co.uk and have it built and delivered to your door by an Authorised Giant Retailer.

At Giant we want to ensure you have the best experience with you new bike, that’s why we don’t deliver bikes in boxes assembled or not. Home Set Up takes the concept of home delivery further, when your bike is delivered you get more than a bike dropped at the door – you get an Authorised Giant Retailer checking that the bike fits and is right for you.  Any company can deliver a bike in a box but no-one else offers a unique service like Home Set Up exclusively from Giant.

When we say ready to ride we mean it, no bars need turning with Home Set Up you have peace of mind that your bicycle is delivered complete and checked – working only with local Authorised Giant Retailers your bike will be delivered ready to ride and that very same retailer will carry out your first three month service, completely free of charge.

Ian Beasant, Managing Director of Giant UK said “Home Set Up offers customers more, everyone leads busy lives and with Click & Collect and Home Set Up we are responding to consumer demands – whilst still maintaining Giant principals and ensuring customers get the right bike and have great riding experiences – this supported by a great independent retail network offers consumers peace of mind and confidence in their online retail experience.”

Click & Collect offers you the confidence of buying from a global brand along with the personal touch and expertise of a local Giant Retailer, Home Set Up has taken this service, one step further.
