Stamped numbers
Chassis number matched to the RC, character for character. We look for filing, grinding or re-stamping.

How it works
From first look to the label
Five steps, in this order, for every bike. The label only goes on at the end.
- 1
Inspect
111 checks, 15 photos and a test ride, written down as we go.
- 2
Score and grade
Every area gets a score out of 10 and a grade from A to D.
- 3
Repair
Safety issues are fixed before sale. Structural damage means we don't sell the bike.
- 4
Second check
A different person checks the repairs and rides the bike again.
- 5
Label and report
The seal goes on and the report is ready for you to read.
Reading the report
Scores tell you condition. Grades tell you what happens next.
Score, out of 10
Example: Brakes 8/10
- 0–2Critical
Unsafe or failed; the bike cannot carry our label until fixed
- 3–4Poor
Repair or replace before sale
- 5–6Fair
Wear visible; service or minor repair advised
- 7–8Good
Normal wear; no action needed
- 9–10Excellent
As good as expected for age; no action
Grade
A
Good condition
No repair required
B
Repair needed
Repair or replacement required; the work is recorded
C
Critical safety issue
The bike cannot carry our label until resolved
D
Structural, engine or document issue
Needs further assessment; may make the bike unviable
Close up
Measured, not guessed.
Numbers on the frame, tread on the tyres and the thickness of the brake pads are read or measured.
Tyres
Tread measured and date code read. We replace a tyre below 1.6 mm, more than 5–6 years old, or with cracks, cuts or bulges.
Brakes
Pads or shoes above 2 mm, disc above its stamped minimum, and the bike stops straight.
The Quality Checked label
The label goes on last.
Only after the repairs are done and a second person has checked them. Each label has its own report number and a QR code that opens that bike's report.
Before the label goes on
- All approved repairs completed and recorded
- All Grade C (safety-critical) issues resolved
- Brakes, lights, horn and controls tested after repair
- Test ride after repair completed
- Cosmetic finish meets the quality standard
- Remaining known defects listed for disclosure
- Documents verified; transfer forms ready
- Repaired by and approved by different people
The label confirms that our own documented inspection was completed. It is not a government or third-party certification.
Honest limits
What an inspection can't tell you
We don't take bikes apart to inspect them. So here are the limits, up front.
Hidden faults
Defects that only show when the bike is taken apart may not be found.
The true km
We judge whether the odometer is believable from records and wear. Nobody can prove it.
Later changes
The report records condition on the inspection date and time.
Paper records
Document checks use the original papers and the government portals on that date.
That's why every bike comes with a 30-day cover on engine and gearbox. Read the cover terms
