Looking good Pal!
I had about 6 emails from Frey last night... My bike went from Production, to QC, to Packing, all within about 3 mins
I'm now being asked to reconsider Air Freight as they can't guarantee the import fees, but they're thought to be about 200 euros. (Does anyone know how much they charge importing to UK?)
I don't mind paying 200 euros if it makes things quicker, but I'll be gutted if I get stung big time, especially after waiting so long already.
And then the batteries!!! Which I thought had already shipped, will actually ship tomorrow.
We're getting there.... Slowly but surely....

Hi I got mine, a couple of weeks ago, an AM1000 and I’m in Scotland, I got the same email and chose to go via air, it got delivered within a week of getting the pictures through however....Looking good Pal!

1. the battery still ships through Hungary or Germany and still takes about 4 weeks to arrive (3 weeks after the bike). They need to clear European customs or something and ththe tracking just stalls for a few weeks.
2. The bike got delivered with no COD, but I did get an invoice through a few days later and it was around £122 ( from memory).
Hope that helps?

That's great cheers guys, really helps put my mind at rest about the costs... I've had a little niggle in the back of my head about import costs from the start but that's much better than I ever envisaged...
I think I'll stick with Air Freight in that case as I just want to get my hands on it now... Hopefully the batteries don't take too long!

So Stevie, you got the bike but no battery? How long did you wait from order to delivery and if you dont have battery, when are you expecting it?

Hi, I’m new to this forum but think this is the best place to ask a question. I’ve had my order for an AM1000 in for a couple of months now, and it’s almost ready for shipping ( I’m in Scotland btw). I’ve been reading up more on forums and posts about Frey Ebikes ( as you do) and I’m getting a...

check out the other thread , it documents my journey, I did a wee review and put all the pictures up too. In short im really happy with it, and value for money it’s great, the biggest gripe is the timesit takes, bud I’m sure in more normal ( pre Covid ) times it would have been better. As we are all use to getting things straight away.

How long were you quoted as far as lead time to receive the bike?

At first I was told 2 Month Build Time 1 Month Delivery, but who knows, covid was rife by then and perhaps I shouldn't have been told that, an old sales script maybe...
