We made this exact switch ourselves.
SpokeHub was built in a New Zealand bike shop that ran on Hubtiger for years — and the shop's own records were the first ones through the importer. Moving your customers, bikes, and service history across isn't an afterthought for us. It's the first thing we built, because we needed it too.
Your history comes with you
SpokeHub imports directly from your Hubtiger account:
- Customers — names, contact details, the lot
- Bikes — linked to their owners
- Job cards & service history — so the first customer who walks in after you switch still has their full record
You don't start from zero. You start from where you are.
Switching takes three steps
Connect
Link your Hubtiger account to SpokeHub and run the import. We do this with you.
Check
Review the imported customers, bikes, and history with us before you go live. Poke at it with real records.
Switch
Pick a quiet day, point your booking link at SpokeHub, and start writing jobs. Most shops are running the same afternoon.
Migration is free and assisted — a real person (the one who built it) helps you through.
What changes for you
Most shops we talk to run their workshop system alongside separate tools for point of sale, invoicing, and customer messaging. Here's what that setup looks like once everything lives in one place:
| Running separate tools | With SpokeHub |
|---|---|
| Workshop bookings in one system, POS, invoicing, and messaging in others | One system, one bill, one login |
| Customer details typed into more than one place | Enter once, flows everywhere |
| Looking customers up by hand when the phone rings | Caller ID opens their record automatically |
| Creating products by hand at receiving | Scan a barcode — imports from NZ distributor catalogues |
| Waiting on support in a faraway timezone | NZ-based, same timezone, built by a mechanic |
No lock-in, no leap of faith

FAQ
Will we lose our service history?
No — that's the point of the importer. Job cards, customers, and bikes come across, linked correctly.
How long does switching take?
The import runs in hours. Most shops go live the same day they decide to switch. Plan for one quiet afternoon.
Can we run both during the changeover?
Yes. Keep your Hubtiger account available for reference during the changeover for as long as you need — there's no forced cutover date.
What does migration cost?
Nothing. Assisted migration is included.
Hubtiger is a trademark of its respective owner. SpokeHub is an independent product and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Hubtiger. The importer works with data from your own Hubtiger account, accessed with your authorisation.
