AI Automation for Bike Shops
You sell bikes, then you never hear from the customer again. AI fixes that. Service reminders, custom build quotes, warranty chases, all handled while your mechanics stay on the tools where they belong.
AI Overview
AI automation for bike shops handles 6 and 12 month service reminder sequences, custom build quote intake, warranty follow-ups, and bike fit bookings. The aim is that past customers get reminded when a service is due, custom build enquiries get answered before the rider shops elsewhere, and the counter staff stop doing it all by memory.
The 3 reasons your workshop isn't as busy as it should be.
Your customer database is a goldmine. You just never get time to dig.
Services nobody books because nobody reminds them
Sold a bike 6 months ago. The customer should be in for a service. They're not. They didn't remember, and nobody reminded them. Multiply that across every bike you've ever sold and the workshop revenue you're missing is eye-watering.
Custom build quotes stuck in limbo
Someone emails asking about a custom build. It sits in the inbox. You finally reply 3 days later. They've gone somewhere else. Custom builds are your highest-margin sale, so they deserve better than slow email back-and-forth.
Seasonal peaks that crush admin
Spring hits. Every bike in Melbourne needs a tune. Your counter is buried in forms, your phone won't stop ringing, and your mechanics are stuck answering questions instead of turning spanners. Automation smooths the peaks.
The 4 automations that keep the workshop booked out.
Service Reminder Sequences
AI tracks service dates from your POS and sends reminders at 6 and 12 months with a direct booking link, so customers who would otherwise forget come back in.
Custom Build Quote Intake
A smart intake form captures rider height, discipline, budget, and preferences. AI compiles the brief, suggests spec options, and routes it to your workshop for a fast quote.
Warranty Follow-Ups
Warranty claims handled with a proper paper trail: customer details, purchase date, issue description, supplier routing. No more lost emails or 'I thought you were doing that' drop-balls.
Bike Fit Booking
Customers who bought a bike in the last 90 days get an automated bike fit offer. High-margin, high-satisfaction service most shops completely under-sell. AI does the selling for you.

Example Scenario
What this could look like for a bike shop with a busy workshop.
This is an illustrative example of how these automations fit together, not a specific client. What changes for you depends on the size of your customer database and how much of the follow-up happens today.
Before AI
- Service reminders sent ad-hoc when someone remembered
- Custom quotes taking days to turn around
- Bike fits rarely up-sold at point of purchase
- Warranty claims lost in email threads
After AI
- Service reminders auto-send at 6 and 12 months
- Custom build briefs compiled and routed the same day
- Bike fit offer goes to every new bike buyer
- Every warranty claim logged and tracked
The pattern is the same either way: the customer database stops sitting idle, the workshop gets asked for by people who would otherwise have forgotten, and the counter staff get their day back.
