See which bike shop went quiet before spring.
Bike shops order parts every week in season and stock up before spring. A shop that skips its spring order has usually found another supplier. Signal Base shows it while you can still fix it.

What normal looks like
weekly in season
A repair shop orders tubes and brake pads every week, a larger store every ten days plus one big order before the season, an e-bike specialist orders batteries and parts every two weeks. The hub keeps each rhythm and its season.
The four signals, in your trade
One line per customer on the call list, with the strongest reason. This is how they read for bike shops and repair workshops.
Past its own rhythmOn the list: Orders every 10 days. Last one 4 weeks ago.
The customer usually orders every three weeks and it has been five. The hub compares each customer with their own habit, not with a fixed number of days, and only lists the ones worth the call.
What you say: “We missed your pre-season order. Are you stocked for spring?”
Smaller ordersOn the list: On time, 40% less per order.
They still order on time, but structurally less per order. Often it means another supplier now gets part of the list.
What you say: “Your orders are lighter this year. Are you selling more complete bikes and fewer parts?”
A product drops outOn the list: Tyres off the order for 6 weeks.
One product or a whole category has stopped showing up on otherwise normal orders. That is a cross-sell conversation, not a rescue.
What you say: “You stopped ordering tyres from us. Can I send you the new range?”
New customerOn the list: First order 8 days ago.
The first order just went out. A call in the first two weeks is when a one-off becomes a regular.
What you say: “How did the first delivery go? Do you want a stock list for the season?”
What else it watches for you

Reorder advice for the season against target cover, and last year’s models that stopped moving.

Seasons
March to June is the peak and winter is slow. The budget spreads each shop’s year over your season curve, so a quiet December is not a signal and a quiet March is.
