We are proud to say that we are Canada's only Bosch eBike Expert Certified retailer. What does that mean? Well in our industry that's the Gold standard that recognizes a retailer as truly being the very best in the industry. We are so proud to be the only retailer to have this designation since 2016! We don't say we are the best we actually have been awarded this extremely prestigious certification for actually being one of the very few worldwide to have obtained this level of excellence.
At Scooteretti® each and every customer is welcome to visit us firsthand and see for themselves our large state of the art retail store, service center.
If in doubt we always suggest doing a little research on whom you are buying from. We suggest using Google Maps or similar to locate their shops and one will quickly see that many of these shops are just garages, small sub-1000 sq. ft with little to no inventory, but merely have a website and a few bikes.
At Scooteretti® we firmly believe in both before and after-sales support. Our customer's always have FREE access to our trained, expert staff for as long as they own their bikes. Our staff not only sell electric bicycles we actually own and ride them as well.

This is a topic that must be taken seriously. Unfortunately, most only retailers cheat the system and ship these items illegally in order to save on the cost of training and added shipping costs. If caught this can mean a whole lot of trouble and fines for both the retailer and the customer!
Lithium-Ion batteries are classified as dangerous goods in all countries worldwide! Since lithium batteries are designed to provide high levels of power, the electrical energy in these batteries is significant, meaning that such batteries can sometimes generate a great amount of heat if short-circuited. In addition, the chemical contents of these batteries may catch fire if damaged or if improperly designed or assembled. For these reasons, there are safety regulations controlling the shipment of these types of batteries. All lithium batteries manufactured by reputable companies like Bosch ensure that their batteries are not only tested & certified they are safe for consumer use.
It is a legal requirement that all shippers be trained and certified to the applicable regulations in order to ship these products.
At Scooteretti we are proud that each one of our shippers is trained and certified to ship Dangerous Goods by airfreight, sea freight, and ground worldwide. We are proud retailers to have received our onsite Transport Canada certificate of full compliance.
SHIPPING & FULFILMENT
Orders will typically be dispatched within 1-2 business days. Electric bikes and some non-stock items may take a few days longer as they require thorough testing, inspection, assembly, and special packing prior to shipping.
If your order has been in processing for more than 3 business days, please contact us at sales@scooteretti.com and one of our friendly staff will be pleased to assist you.
As soon as your order is shipped you will immediately be sent tracking information for your order. Please note that it can take up to 1 business day for tracking details to appear on the shipping carrier's website.
