Another dealer bites the dust...

Post by mboy »

Heard this evening that Streetbike in Halesowen (Triumph, Suzuki, Zero electric bikes) have gone bump today... Staff weren't even told before hand apparently, and have found themselves out of work this morning! Social media already full of comments from people who have only recently placed deposits on bikes that they are now no longer going to receive...

Sad news for those involved certainly, but they're not the first and from what I'm hearing from within the industry, I doubt they will be the last fairly high profile dealer to go pop in the near future...

Ah man. I bought my first ever brand new bike from them (2003 Hornet 600!). 😭
