Beeline Connect links bike brands’ servicing to local mechanics

Beeline Connect has launched an embedded online service scheduling functionality for bike brands that will link their consumers to local workshops, who will gain from referred set up and service work.

Lined up already, brands like Rad Power Bikes, Alchemy Bikes and Lectric eBikes are ready to forward their service work as consumers who have bought online look for assistance.

Consumers will be able to use each brand’s website to search a network of over 1,700 bicycle shops registered where Beeline Connect operates.

“Beeline Connect’s fulfillment program and Service Center map have been invaluable tools for Priority to provide the stellar customer experience we’ve built our brand on,” says David Weiner, co-founder and CEO of Priority Bicycles, another D2C customer. “Service Scheduling takes the experience to the next level for Priority owners looking to get the most out of their bicycle. We love how Beeline has made the experience native to our website while allowing each bike shop to set their own menu of service items and pricing.”

For the bike shop there is a simple opt in for the servicing work, with brands each store choose to work with manually selected. Shops can then set their own service menu and pricing structures, plus take control of the number of appointments they’d be willing to accept via the online scheduling platform.

Shop scheduling is managed through Beeline Connect’s platform and is available to all U.S. bicycle retailers with a free Bridge subscription.

“With our growth and success since launching in 2019, we’ve begun seeing more and more of our customers asking where to get regular maintenance as they enjoy their Lectric eBikes,” said co-founder and CEO of Lectric eBikes, Levi Conlow. “With Beeline’s platform we know that every retailer in our Service Network is excited to work on Lectric eBikes, and it ensures that our customers get the same great experience as their initial purchase with Lectric.”
