    Cycletreads website gone?

    Site went down with a 404 error a few days ago and now appears to be completely gone.

    Does anyone know what's going on there?

    Down for me too. Guessing they just forgot to pay the website hosting bill or something.

    I just called them, apparently they've been the victim of a cyber attack.

    Maybe someone ordered something that was actually in stock and the site couldn't cope....

    Bloody funny. It's probably easier to use at the moment.

    A few days back both Techmoto - www.techmoto.co.nz - and Cycletreads were down, displaying the same issue.

    I know the guys at Techmoto said they were having issues with their site host.

    Can only assume Cycletreads use the same host and were/are having the same issues.

    I had thought most of the bike shops used the same system so they can drop ship from the wholesalers.

    Site seems to be back up, or at least partly so. Based on another thread from last week I was a little weary when I went in on Saturday but downstairs seems to be much the same. The workshop was busy, and lots of people kicking tyres with the Yamaha bikes. Didn't venture upstairs though

    The site is up and running again.

    They are short of staff, so that can cause delays when attempting to contact them.

    Top Tip: NEVER use the "contact us" area of their website... Always phone them!

    Pro tip. Don't bother phoning unless you know exactly what you want in what size.
    Going in seems to be the only way to get any more useful info than availability... which may still be wrong.

    So their website is a waste of everyone's time.

    It's probably sensible to doubt any website's info until product stocked is confirmed by staff.
