1.1 General Shipping Information

Please consult our GearHub Shipping Information Page here: https://www.gearhub.ca/service/shipping-returns/

1.2 Shipping Pricing & Insurance

We love to empower our customers and let them make choices on their preferred carriers and timelines. This is why you are presented with multiple shipping avenues, prices and timelines to suit your needs once you fill in your address at checkout. Shipping quotes are based on the dimensions of your order and destination and are directly generated from Canada Post for Canadian orders and DHL for international orders. All shipments are insured to their order's value up to $5000 and all orders over $150 will require a signature for the release of the parcel.

We offer flat rate, insured bicycle shipping across Canada, excluding Yukon, the North West Territories and Nunavut. Children's bicycles and international sales are quoted at checkout.

$149 full-size regular bicycles

$199 Fatbikes

Please contact [email protected] as we are more than happy to provide a shipping quote to get your new bike to the Yukon, Nunavut, and the Northwest Territories.  

1.3 Shipping Timelines & Bike Shipments

Orders will be shipped within 1-3 business days of customer transactions.   If your order requires immediate and expedited shipment, please contact our store at 250.423.5555 following your transaction and we'll be happy to help.  Seeing as we don’t yet have a meteorologist on staff, weather delays and unforeseen circumstances may impact delivery times, for which the GearHub is not responsible or liable.  Estimated arrival dates at checkout are therefore more like guidelines and unfortunately cannot be guaranteed.  

Bike Shipments: Bike purchases ship within 3-5 days as our shop technicians will have inspected your bike for manufacturer's defects, partially disassembled and boxed your new wheels to ensure that you are getting the quality assurance all our customers deserve. Unexpected delays may occur. The shipment will be insured to your order's value up to $10,000* and will require a signature for the release of the parcel. Shipping companies usually take 3-7 business days to deliver within Canada (this timeline cannot be guaranteed by Gearhub Sports, as weather, peak shipping times, and unexpected shipping delays may occur.) Once it ships, you'll receive a shipment notification email and tracking information.
