Brand Values

• •Expertise & Quality
• •Customer Satisfaction & Service
• •Passion for Cycling
• •Integrity & Trust
• •Adaptability & Modernity

Best Practices

• •Speak from Experience (and Passion): Always ground your copy in genuine cycling knowledge and enthusiasm. Use "we" to reflect the team's shared passion and expertise. Share personal anecdotes or staff experiences where appropriate (e.g., "Our mechanic, Ross, recently tested...").
• •Prioritize Helpfulness: Frame content around solving customer problems or enhancing their cycling experience (e.g., "How to choose...", "Tips for...", "Your guide to..."). Even promotional copy should offer value beyond just the product. The detailed size charts are a great example of this.
• •Maintain a Friendly, Local Voice: While professional, avoid overly corporate or impersonal language. Use welcoming phrases, acknowledge the local Fife context, and keep the "family-run, professionally done" ethos in mind.
• •Show, Don't Just Tell, Expertise: Instead of just saying you're experts, demonstrate it. Explain technical features in an understandable way, offer insightful tips, and discuss the benefits of quality components or specific bike types for particular local conditions or riding styles.
• •Be Consistent Across Platforms, Adapt for Nuance: While the core tone (knowledgeable, friendly, passionate) should remain, adapt the expression for each platform. Instagram can be more visual and informal ("silly videos"), while the website blog can be more in-depth and educational. Facebook can be a mix, good for community engagement and news. Ensure the core values always shine through.
