The idea of Direct Bikes was developed back in 2005 in offices above a pub in Notting Hill, London. The concept was simple to supply their own brand of scooters direct to the public, cut out the middle man and pass the savings on to you.

Direct Bikes had their critics, of course. Some people believed it couldn't be done or that people wouldn't want to buy a scooter online.

Well, they proved them wrong. Their customers love Direct Bikes, no nonsense approach to scooters. Rapid sales have fueled demand expanding the business into Italy, Spain, Belgium and USA.

Independent figures from the Motor Cycle Industry Association confirmed Direct Bikes the UK's No.1 Selling Scooter brand, above established brands such as Vespa, Piaggio and Honda.
