Corrections policy

We correct factual errors as soon as we know about them. This page explains how we handle different kinds of changes and how to report something that looks wrong.

Updates vs corrections

Most edits to our guides are updates — refreshed prices, new model years, an extra section. Updates bump the Updated date. The original meaning stays the same.

A correction happens when something we previously said was wrong. Corrections add a Corrected on [date] note at the foot of the affected article, briefly describing what changed and why. We do not silently rewrite the original claim.

Material vs typographical corrections

A typographical correction (a misspelling, a broken link, a date typo) is fixed silently. A material correction (an incorrect price band, a wrong UK-law statement, a mis-attribution to a brand or person) gets the dated note.

How to report an error

Email corrections@cyclesite.co.uk with the URL of the page, the sentence you think is wrong, and any source we should consult. We aim to respond within five working days. If the issue is urgent (an active legal or safety matter), say so in the subject line.

Right of reply

Brands, retailers and authors named in our guides can request a right of reply. We will publish a response of up to 200 words inline with the original claim, alongside our note explaining whether we have updated the underlying claim.
