Montague DX - Many thanks. Bike fully assembled and awaiting professional check by local bike shop. Bike is smaller than I anticipated - so I am glad I bought the 20" on your advice. It has a good quality feel to it and seems much lighter than my existing folding bike. I intend to use it daily in lieu of my normal bike. Thanks again for your help and advice. .

Mr K L, Andover, Hampshire, 04 August 2009

Dr M T Liverpool, 20 July 2009

Paratrooper - Bike arrived last week in one box, but bike soft carry case was missing, can you send it too, thank you.

Mr T A, Turku, Finland 14 July 2009

Paratrooper - Thank you, bike has now arrived. My husband is away until Saturday so he will open the parcel then. Looking forward to receiving the pedals, kickstand, and mudguards as soon as you have them available. Many thanks for your good service (a friend of ours is very interested in this bike also!) Kind regards .

Swissbike LX - Bike received yesterday and accessories to-day. Thank you for your prompt attention to the order. I have placed an (internet) order for an adjustable stem (to get the riding position a bit more comfy) and hope that it is available for prompt dispatch ! Regards, .

Mr J C, Napton Southam, Warwicks, 18 June 2009

Mr W S, Angus,Dundee 05 June 2009

Swissbike LX SE - Hello Free issue items arrived today thanks! Have been out for a quick spin on the bike first impressions are very good. Thanks again. .

Mr D W, Windemere, Cumbria, 04 June 2009

Paratrooper - Hi, I too am now back from travels! Yes, please can you go ahead with sending me the 18in Paratropper for my wife. I would also like the half price carry bag with this. I note your comments re the stand, but do not really need these for either bike, so I will return the one you sent be asap. I would like to buy front and rear mudguards for both bikes though. I am not sure what the difrerence between the Shockblade and Xblade advertised on your website? Perhaps you could give me a call to discuss so these can be delivered with the bike? Regards

Mr R S, Chagford, Devon 2 June 2009

Swissbike LX SE -Hi Bike just been delivered, so can go for a game of Golf now !, too hot to go out for a ride. Thanks, .

Mr ID, Glasgow, 02 June 2009

Montague DX x 2 - I ordered 2 bags for the bikes we bought (which we are pleased with) can you tell me if or when they will be dispatched. If they have not gone yet. I have a different address I would like them sent to. Thanks .

Miss T, MY KADIMO's (a Yacht) South of France, 18 May 2009

Montague CX x 2 - Thanks for letting me know. By the way, we're really pleased with the bikes!.

Mr I B, Woodthorpe, Notts, 5 May 2009

Paratrooper x 2 - I am very pleased with my Paratrooper and would like to buy the 18 inch model for my wife when these come into stock. A small point, but I would like to have mudguards for both bikes and I don’t really need the folding stand (which I have not fitted) Could I return this to you? .

Mr R S, Chagford, Devon, 05 May 2009

Paratrooper x 2 - Thanks – look forward to seeing you tomorrow. Great news that the carry case is in, look forward to collecting that too!

Mr & Mrs A & S - Thames Ditton, Surrey, 30 April 2009

Montague CX - Thank you for your soon response -sooner than mine-. Yes, I think that I will choose the CX Confort model for my wife. But I still have some other questions: 1 - I don´t understand why you recommend the 20" size, because the tables from your web recommend 18" for a height from 5ft 3inch to 5ft 10" (and my wife -as you know- is 5ft 9inch (1,75 m) tall if I am not mistaken -because the imperial system is a nightmare for me). Could you please explain it to me?. 2 - I already have a Paratrooper -I´m very satisfied with it- but I don´t remember its size (and I don´t keep any paper or instructions of it). Because I am also 1,75 m, it should be useful for me to know the size and compare. How can you see the exact size of a Paratrooper bike?. Any place with this written on it?.

Mr B C, Madrid Spain, 21 April 2009

Swissbike TX - Got my bike put together, and it is fantastic, thanks. Better than I imagined! No problems at all. .

Mr J W, Bridge of Allen, Stirlingshire, 06 March 2009

Paratrooper - Like the bike and so does my partner. She's insistent to go for the paratrooper! I guess the best way to order is via the web site? Looking forward to your response, .

Mr J N, Southampton 04 March 2009

Paratrooper -Thank you, - the bike arrived here safely a few hours ago! Best

Mr Hans M, Germany , 12 February 2009

Paratrooper x 2 - We just wanted to say thank you very much for the bikes, the free bits and pieces and all the advice you gave us. The bikes arrived on Tuesday safely and we are waiting for some time (and maybe a dry spell) to try them out properly, can't wait! Thank you again,

S & J H, Ashburton, Devon 15 January 2009 2008

Paratrooper - Just a quick email to thank you for the prompt delivery of my Paratrooper which I picked up on 1st December. I am very pleased with the bike. It took me a very long time to decide on a folding bike and I am pleased with my decision. Many thanks for your excellent customer service and knowledge and experience of the bike which confirmed I made the right decision.

Mr C de S, Middx, 30 December 2008

DX - Just to let you know the bike arrived last week. It's a christmas present so I'll send some feedback next week.

Mrs H L, Ashford Middx, 21 December 2008

Swissbike LX - Many thanks, the bike seems fine and it brought me home safely on Saturday, if a little wet.

Mr R B, East Sussex, 15 December 2008

Swissbike LX, purchased by Mr R of London, fitted with electric motor Bion-X 350 - motor supplied by customer fitted by us.

3 December 2008

Paratrooper - It's arrived. Many thanks! He's playing with it at this very moment (inside!)

Rebecca, West Yorks, 26 November 2008

To all present and future customers, I would highly recommend Montaguebikes.co.uk.

Chulan provides a very personal, efficient, friendly service. He offers excellent impartial advice and keeps one updated with the transaction, which is reassuring and so important when making on-line purchases

Matt, London, 26 November 2008

Paratrooper - Thank you very much, the bike arrived safely in my hotel.

I rode already the first 50 miles this weekend.

Thanks again for handling all my queries and my order.

Olaf of Berlin, W Germany, 1 September 2008

Swissbike LX - Just a quick thank you.

I received the bike today and already been for a ride.

Will use your web site again.

Best regards,

Thierry of Manchester, 29 August 2008

Swissbike LX - Bike received and looks great - thanks!

Looking forward to putting it together and taking it out at the weekend!

All the best,

Gyles of North Shields, 28 August 2008

Paratrooper - Bike arrived safely. Thanks for all your help.

Kind regards,

Mr ID (Scottish Parliament), Perthshire, 8 August 2008

Paratrooper - Bike was assembled in the office at the instance of my colleague who is a serious mountain biker. Any time I tried to stall by telling him I needed a pump or a tool (because I had work to do for my job) he handed over whatever I asked for from his pannier bag.

I was impressed at how quickly and easily it went together and how straightforward the folding action was. My colleague was impressed that it looked and felt like a serious mountain bike (because it is one). Another colleague asked for a link to your website as he was thinking of getting a folder as well and liked what he saw. I've offered him a test ride next week, once I've fitted some bits and had some fun on it myself.

It's booked in for a pre-flight check at my local bike shop later this week and I'm looking forward to getting started commuting with it (but a quick ride around the carpark seemed to show up no problems).

I'll need to practice a bit getting it in and out of its bag, but it is currently lying folded up under my desk and will be a useful tool in my commuting arsenal.

Next test - fitting it in the boot of my wife's Fiat Punto.

Mr D O'B of Dublin, Ireland, 28 July 2008

Swissbike LX - Great bike, prompt delivery, excellent service. What more can I say :-)

There is one thing however that you may be able to help me with.

Your sight has a link to a demo film about how to fold the bike. It features what looks to be a wheeled kick stand. Any idea who makes it or where I could get hold of one? I think I'd find it very useful for garage storage.

Mr DG of Poole, Dorset, 20 July 2008

Swissbike LX - The 2 bikes arrived today. They are great, thank you for the folding pedals.

Mr CS of France, 3 July 2008

Swissbike LX - The bike is simply fabulous. Thank you for taking the time to set up the bike and making us feel so welcome and I can't wait to try it off-road at the weekend!

All the best.

AC of London, 2 July 2008

Swissbike LX x 3- All bicycles have arrived sound and safe yesterday. The crew assembled them immediately and everybody is impressed with them. We may even have to order some more of them.

Thank you very much for all your kind assistance so far.

Mr JC - Yacht, South of France, 26 June 2008

Montague CX - Thanks. Had a nice ride home yesterday, although short. No problems with folding and unfolding.

Mr FK of New Malden, Surrey, 24 June 2008

Swissbike LX - Hi, yes, I received it, everything was OK!

Thanks!

Mr CU of Budapest, Hungary, 16 June 2008

Swissbike LX - It arrived about 13:45. Better late than never I guess. Driver couldn't even get the back door opened on his van. Next day delivery isn't a problem in Aberdeen as I worked work with Amtrak for 8 years doing it here! £10 is cheap, but perhaps you can get a refund.... But at least the bike is in good condition and its up and running with no problems, so am well pleased and it looks great. Can't figure out yet if the handlebars are height adjustable or not?

MH of Aberdeen, 11 June 2008

Conrad Taylor, 4 June 2008

Paratrooper - Bike has been delivered Thursday - and it's even more appealing in real life!!!!!
Thanks for your high level of service and expedient handling of this order. I will certainly recommend you to other potential customers!

Kim Engman of Denmark, 25 May 2008

Paratrooper - Thanks for this. Enough goodies there to keep me occupied for ages! And thank you also for a very comprehensive run-through of all the bits to do with the bike yesterday.

MS of Pinner, Middlesex 2 Nov 2007

Thanks again for all of your help and expertise. I have taken it for a spin and I am very happy with my new Paratrooper. Its nice and solid with a comfortable ride.

Thanks again for all your help. I will be telling everyone who asks about it where I got it and how helpful your company was.

Take care.

Mr Will Smith of Newbury, Berks 1 Oct 2007

Swissbike LX - Bike received this morning at 8:45am. Assembled and ridden for about 3 miles. All is well. Thank you for your speedy processing of my order.

Have a good holiday.

Mr PC of Leicester 24 Aug 2007

Paratrooper - Many thanks for your information and service which I found helpful in choosing the bike which I'm presently enjoying. I have one question. What do think is best for the pedals - quick release or the folding types ?

Once again many thanks for your personal service.

Mr FD of London NW6 21 Aug 2007

Swissbike LX - Thanks for sorting out a great bike for me, can you forward details of where to buy the accessories we discussed? I’m keen to get the removable pedals and mud guards, etc.

Mr NW of St Albans, Herts 20 Aug 2007

Paratrooper - Thanks, got the bike yesterday. Absolutely brilliant! Regards.

Mr BM of N Ireland 3 Aug 2007

Swissbike LX - It feels nice (a little shorter than I'm used to; have to watch it on descents) and although a bit tall-geared seems pretty nice, and with the folding mechanism it fits in my car boot.

All in all, I'm well satisfied with what I received, and though I'll need to make the odd adjustment, like moving the saddle back a bit and buying some slime to put in the innertubes (Argos sell it, and cheaply too) and sorting out some lights, the bike rides well right from the start.

Please could you let me know when the bikebag is finally available; that'll make transporting it a less messy process if I've been riding in wet or muddy conditions.

Mr DH of W. Yorks 2 Aug 2007

Forgot to tell you. Had the first ride this morning into work and impressed. (Swissbike LX).

Mr SW of London W8 11 June 2007

Assembled bikes (Paratrooper and CX) today I'm well impressed with quality of the bikes, great value for money, thank you for great service and keeping me up to date with progress.

All the Best, Mr PW of Rotherham 11 June 2007

Thanks so much for fitting the bike up together on Saturday at such short notice. I took the bike out for a run yesterday evening and it performed very well I thought. And you are right - I got stared at.

Mr JB of Farnham, Surrey 23 Mar 2007

Just a quick note of thanks for the demo of the Montague Paratrooper today, its a great piece of kit and better suited to my uses than any other folding bike. I expect some of my friends & colleagues will be in touch when they see me racing around on mine.

To that end; I would like to place an order for 2 x 18in Paratrooper bikes and 2 x carry bags.

Any information regarding upgrading the pedals would be appreciated.

Mr NS of Surrey 3 Aug 2006

Mr IB of Essex on his bike - 3 Nov 2006.

Here is a Paratrooper used by the Dutch Police.

Considering using the Paratrooper as a commuter bike?
Below is photo of a bike modified by a Mr JC of Pembury Kent for just that purpose.
