PRE-ORDERING
Since the response to the Global Pandemic in mid-March, bicycle demand has increased significantly as it is an outdoor activity and one of the few things that people across the country could enjoy during this time in human history.
We have sold out of many of our models, and we are currently offering an option to "Pre-Order" incoming inventory from our factories. This is a program we have employed so that riders who truly are looking for a new bicycle to ride during these historic times.
HOW PRE-ORDERING A BICYCLE WORKS
In the most basic sense, it is a reservation on future inventory yet to be ready for sale to riders. On the product page of the bike you wish to order, you will either see a button to "Notify Me When In Stock" or to "Pre-Order" the bicycle. If the "Add To Cart" or "Buy It Now" buttons are active, your bike is in immediate stock and will usually ship within 3-5 business days.
If the "Notify Me When In Stock" button is present, this means that we do not have reliable delivery dates available, so we don't make the promise that we will ship on a specific date, when in fact we do not have verification that it will. The best thing to do is to sign up for the email notification when it is shown on the product page of the bicycle you would like to order.
Please note, when you receive a stock notification, it may very well be a notice that "Pre-Order" is now available for the specific bicycle you are interested in.
PLEASE NOTE: Due to the complexity of international logistics, and the number of suppliers that provide all the materials to build and manufacture our bicycles, shipping delivery times are subject to change. With the global Pandemic added to the situation, it makes delivery dates dificult to predict. We will email you updates and expected shipping date changes if we experience any during the time of your pre-order.

QUESTIONS & ANSWERS
Ask a Question-
Hello! I’m trying to decide between this Around The Block and the Every journey. I’m 5’2 and primarily would be riding around my very large neighborhood with flat to small hills & paved pathways. Also I only want a model with handle brakes. I’m looking at the 7 speed versions primarily but open to reconsider. Which do you recommend?

I was looking into getting my wife the around the block bike and i noticed that there is very limited colors at this time do to stock. Do you know how long it will be till thoses colors are back in stock? Can I order and wait for it to come in?
Hello,
We have experienced extremely high order volumes with the COVID19 situation. We sold out of almost all of the Around The Block model.
I will be receiving more of them on May 17th, and I will be enabling pre-orders for them shortly.
Check back to the site tomorrow, and you will see the option to preorder the bike of your choice.
Thank you, and please let us know if you have any other questions. -
What children's seats work with this bike?
The Weeride Kangaroo fits best on the Around The Block, but the Topeak will work as well.
-
Does this arrive fully built? Is there a kickstand?
The bike will arrive 80% assembled, you will need to mount the front wheel, handlebars, pedals, seat, and rear rack. Everything bolts on to the bike and everything you need to complete assembly will be included with the bike. We have several assembly videos to assist with assembling the bike.
Kickstand is included on every bike that we make.
Thank you and please let us know if you have any other questions. -
Is there front and rear suspension on this bike? And what material is the frame?
Hello, and thank you for your inquiry.
The Around The Block models do not have any suspension, unfortunately.
This frame is made of steel.
The PaveN'Trail and the Body Ease are the 2 models we currently make that feature front-fork suspension. We currently do not make a bicycle that features full suspension (front and rear).
Please let us know if you have any other questions. -
How big is the shipping container? Thanks.
Hello,
The box that the Around The Block ships in measures 52" long, 27" tall, 8" wide. Shipped, the package weighs approximately 42 lbs.
Thank you, and please let us know if you have any other questions. -
Why can't I get fenders to match the bike frame for around the block I had to order black?
Greetings, and thank you for your email.
We do not have matching Fender's at this time for all of the Around The Block models, however, we will have them available in early 2020.
It is something we are working on as we have had many people request matching fenders.
Thank you for your understanding. -
Is it a steel or aluminum frame?
Greetings, and thank you for your email.
The Around The Block models all have steel frames.
Thank you, and please let us know if you have any other questions. -
