Shipping policy

Insured Shipping

Receive replacement or refund for lost, stolen, or damaged shipments. Protect your shipment with insured shipping through The Bike Shop and receive replacement or refund for lost, stolen, or damaged items. 

If you choose to not insure your package, there is no coverage for lost, stolen, or damaged shipments.

All insured packages will need a signature upon delivery.

The cost to insure your package is:

 • $5 for orders under $300
 • 1.5% of the value of the order, before taxes, on orders over $300.01

Standard Ground Shipping does not include insurance. If you want to insure your shipment please select "Insured Standard Ground" as your shipping method selection.
