Bookings Information
Frequently asked questions:
Q: When I make an online service booking via your website, how do I get my postage label to send you my suspension?
A: Your personalized and barcoded delivery label is generated in the final step of the online booking process. The label is system generated by Australia Post. If you do not see the label 'on screen', you can access it via your 'downloads' folder on your computer. You will also be able to re-open the label via the link in the booking confirmation email you should receive.
Q: I do not have access to a printer, how can I print my delivery label?
A: Your label can be scanned from your mobile device or iPad at your local Australia Post outlet. If using this lodgement method, please ensure your items are clearly labeled with your booking reference number.
Q: How long does it take for my suspension items to reach your workshop?
A: Delivery times can vary, and they can be calculated here: In most cases, items are received in 1-3 business days from when they are lodged.
Q: How can I track the shipping progress of my suspension items?
A: Simply 'copy and paste' the article ID number from the label that was used to post the items, and enter it here to track its progress. Please note, in some instances, tracking may take a day or two to appear.
Q: Which postage method do you use for the return shipping?
A: We use the most cost-effective shipping method, which is calculated by weight. Hence, most rear shocks and seat-posts are returned via express, and forks are returned via regular mail unless express is economically viable.
