Behind the Build: Why We’re Upgrading Our Custom Ordering & Purchase Security

At The Garage Vlog Shop (TGV), we don’t just assemble parts—we engineer high-performance machines built to rip. From the raw steel layout to the final pass of our signature premium “TGV Red” industrial powder coating, every single Mini Trike that rolls off our fabrication line is tailored specifically to its rider.

Because our builds are completely custom, specialized, and highly valued, we are introducing a new, formalized Bilateral Build Confirmation & Purchase Process across our e-commerce platform.

These policy updates are designed to lock in your exact machine specifications, streamline our heavy-freight crate logistics, and maximize secure financial processing for both parties. Here is everything you need to know about how your next custom TGV build comes to life.

The 4-Stage TGV Pipeline: From Checkout to Freight Delivery

Going forward, every custom vehicle allocation will transition through a transparent, structured four-stage verification pipeline:

• 1. Spec & Color Lock-In: The moment you place your reservation online, your build parameters are formally queued. This permanently logs your exact model configuration, performance powertrain setups, and custom aesthetic details (like the signature “ENTICER” graphics packs).
• 2. The Bilateral Build Agreement: Before any metal is cut, our corporate office will dispatch a personalized Build Confirmation & Purchase Agreement PDF straight to your inbox. This formal document explicitly outlines your verified heavy-freight shipping address and transparent line-item pricing (including base fabrication, secure industrial crate packaging, and applicable duties). Both TGV and the Buyer sign off on this document to guarantee mutual alignment.
• 3. Secure Funding & Precision Fabrication: Once your customized agreement is executed and secure funds are verified through our direct business merchant channels, our fabrication crew gets to work. Frame geometry is jigged, rigid mini trike stress points are reinforced, and engine packages are spec’d.
• 4. Industrial Crating & Freight Logistics: Once the bike passes strict quality control, it is anchored securely inside an industrial, heavy-duty shipping crate to prevent any transit damage. It is then handed off to our trusted heavy-freight logistics partners and shipped directly to your door with full tracking and transit documentation.

Understanding Our Core Purchase Policies

To protect the integrity of our custom manufacturing pipeline and keep our operations running smoothly, two critical protective policies are now strictly enforced within our checkout architecture:

1. Direct, Reversal-Proof Payment Protocols

To guarantee elite transaction security, eliminate online merchant fraud, and completely protect our shop against post-delivery chargeback risks, all custom builds must be finalized through our direct corporate payment channels. Detailed routing details for Secure Bank Transfers, Wire, or ACH Payments are securely transmitted immediately following your agreement signature. This ensures your payment is safe, fully processed, and legally secure before fabrication starts.

2. Strict Non-Refundable Allocation Policy

Because a TGV bike is engineered to order, raw materials are allocated and structural fabrication begins immediately after your funds clear. Therefore, all completed transactions, component allocations, and custom structural builds are 100% non-refundable, and cancellations are strictly prohibited once assembly is underway. We build them to ride, and we build them for you.

Operational Notice: As a reminder, the TGV “ENTICER” and our accompanying custom mini-trike lineups are engineered exclusively for closed-course recreation, off-road track performance, and exhibition use. Buyers retain full accountability for adhering to local legal compliance, registration, and operation laws in their respective regions.

Built for Performance, Secured for Peace of Mind

These updates aren’t just about paperwork—they are about treating custom vehicle fabrication with the professional precision it deserves. By safeguarding the financial checkout process and establishing a crystal-clear paper trail for your bike’s specs, we ensure that your build is protected from the second you hit “order” to the moment the shipping crate drops in your driveway.
