  • Proven Sales Experience: Prior experience in a sales or customer service role is essential, ideally within the cycling, sports, or outdoor retail industry.
  • Technical Advantage: Basic technical expertise in bicycle mechanics is required, including the ability to confidently assemble new bikes and handle common repairs. Full technical certification is desirable but not essential.
