Lead Times

Before despatch, bikes are built, configured and tested by one of our experienced technical team. 

Free boxed delivery requires basic assembly of your bike when it arrives. Generally the front wheel will need to be reattached, the bars will need to be turned plus pedals fitted.

Please note that Cube Stereo models are not supplied with pedals, browse our range HERE

We aim to despatch an in-stock bike 3-5 days after an order is placed (not including weekends / bank & public holidays).

For bike located in a warehouse location we aim to dispatch within 10-12 days (not including weekends / bank & public holidays).

Please note the dispatch timescale shown in on our website / basket / order confirmation are estimated. If applicable Saturdays are included in the calculation however items are normally only dispatched Monday to Friday.

Bikes will be delivered by DX or TNT, please note for some Cube Stereo the front wheel will be packed in a separate box but both wheel and bike should be delivered at the same time.

For parts and accessories we aim to despatch the next working day after the order is placed. Your if you have chosen multiple items your order may arrive in separate deliveries. For more information about delivery timescales please click HERE
