hi i recently brought a focus Jarifa 3.9 from Spiral cycles in Ashford in july 2019. i took this pack within 2 weeks for its 1st 100km service which had a few little teething problems with gears which was rectified.
as i started love going out on my new ebike about 350 miles it started creaking badly when putting weight on the crank/pedals ie going up hills and the pads on the rear started rubbing most of the time.
i went to take back to spiral cycles on monday after a phone call that i was bringing it to them on friday into which i got there a message on the door saying closed for stock take. i was fuming as just traveled 40 miles to get there on a day off.
i then had to find another focus dealer as i thought with such a short time owning it the problem should be covered under some sort of warranty.
i then contacted energise ebikes in tunbridge wells and took my focus jarifa 3.9 for Tony to look at in which he instantly new the problem and after a couple of hours rectified the problems but came with a small bill of £25 which i still argue that motor bolts coming loose is A warranty issue he said this would of been done by spiral cycles as this is where i brought it from.i paid the bill and then contacted Focus bikes who have ignored this problem but have replied to emails but not wanting to reinburse me of this extra cost .
i have now found out that spiral cycles in ashford have gone into adminastration as was told by enegise ebikes the warranty on these problems are with them .
i have now contacted my credit card company as i have no confidence in the ebike and sure its not fit for the purpose .
has anybody else had problems with focus and brushing of warranty issues
