ACT Shop of the Month
Posted on in Cycles News
Each month the ACT recognises one cycle retailer as the Shop of the month.
The Shop of the month benefits from appearing on the home page of The
Cycling Experts and the ACT websites, accessible by up to 600,000 web
visitors a month.
The Cycling Experts benefits from traffic directly from British Cycling, Why Cycle, Bike Hub, Sustrans, Bike Week and Bikesoup, which all utilise or link directly to the Experts Business Listings. The combined traffic from all of these sites exceeds 4 million unique visitors a year.
To be considered as a future Shop of the Month, make sure your promotional listing is up to date. All cycle retailers have a basic entry with the option of creating their own extended, unique, promotional listing, click here to find out more.

All the mechanics are Cytech qualified, so you can be sure your bike is receiving specialist and expert care.
