UK delivery

If your item is in stock and ordered before 12pm, we will do our best to despatch your order the day you place it. In busy times we tell you how long it will take us to process it.

The above does not apply to bikes, which we have to assemble and inspect before repacking for dispatch. Typically we try to have bike orders dispatched within 3-5 days, but in busier times it may take longer. In those cases we'll let you know of longer than expected delivery times.

Please bear in mind that we are closed on Wednesdays, so no items will be dispatched then.

Free postage over £40

For small items we use Royal Mail's 48 service which has a delivery time of typically 2-3 days from dispatch; though you do have the option to upgrade to 24 which is generally next-day from dispatch if you require your order sooner. Please note in some cases the item will need to be signed for, so please provide an address where someone will be in.

Orders of over £40 will qualify for free standard postage with Royal Mail 48. This may exclude certain bulky or awkward items which will be calculated automatically at the basket screen.

Bike shipping

When we send out a larger parcel such as a bike or trailer we use a next-day courier - usually either DPD or Parcelforce.

For these reasons please supply us with a delivery address where there will be someone in to sign for your parcel. If there is nobody in when the couriers call, they will leave a card. You can then phone them to arrange delivery for another day or collect your goods from your local depot (a photo ID with proof of address will be required).

How will my bike be delivered?

We fully assemble, safety check and inspect every bike as though you were going to ride it away from our showroom.

However, to get it back into a box suitable for a courier to handle, we have to remove the pedals, handlebar and usually the front wheel - so some minor reassembly is required when the bike is delivered to you.

Please bear in mind that you might need a 15mm spanner for the pedals (adult's bikes generally do not come with pedals included, so you may not need to worry about this), and 4mm, 5mm and 6mm allen/hex keys for the reassembly.

Outside the UK

Since Brexit it is no longer feasible for our website to have permanent shipping prices for international delivery. Instead, if there is an item you are interested in, please Contact Us with a full delivery address and we will quote for delivery.

All the prices on our website and catalogue are in pounds sterling and are inclusive of VAT, but VAT will be removed for international orders. Please bear in mind that you will likely have to pay your country's taxes, import duties and associated courier handling fees for any items.

Cycle to Work

×

The Cycle to Work scheme is a government scheme designed to provide a more affordable way for you to purchase a new bike & equipment for cycling to work.

Depending on your tax bracket and the scheme provider used, you can save 25%-47% on the price of a new bike and accessories as well as spreading the cost over a period of 6-48 months without paying any interest.

The bike purchased on the scheme can be any kind of bike - hybrid bike, road bike, mountain bike, electric bike, cargo bike - as long as the primary user of the bike is the person who took out the scheme. So... no children's bikes, sorry.

It sounds too good to be true, but rest assured it really is that much of a no-brainer.

Click & Collect

×

We've all got busy lives, and sometimes it's easier just to browse online at home rather than having to come out to our shop. Our click & collect service is free and easy to use - simply:

  1. Browse the site and add the items you'd like to collect to your basket.
  2. Head to the checkout and select Collect in Store as your delivery region under the Delivery Region/Country header.
  3. Proceed through the online checkout and pay for your items as usual.
  4. We'll be in touch as soon as your order is ready to collect! In cases where an item is out of stock or might take a while to arrive we'll let you know. Payment is not actually processed against your card until we've accepted the order.
  5. Come to the store and collect your items whenever is convenient. Please bring valid photo ID just in case!

We go through the best of the 2016 Spring/Summer clothing ranges from Castelli, Endura and Altura.



Summer cycling kit
We've just had a major delivery of summer clothing from Endura, Castelli and Altura. Here are some of the products we like most:

castelli perfetto light jersey
Castelli Perfetto Light

The pros wanted something lighter and cooler than the Gabba that still had wind and waterproofing, so Castelli gave them the Perfetto Light jersey.

The Gabba needs no introduction. It can be seen all over British roads throughout the winter. It is comfortably the best winter jersey/jacket there is. The Perfetto Light aims to give riders a more breathable, lighter version of the Gabba that can be used on wet summer days and through the spring/autumn periods.

endura bib shorts
Endura FS260-Pro SL Bibshorts

We love the FS260 bib shorts. Not just because they're available in male and female specific cuts, but also for their precision fitting and the awesome leg grippers. They're a race fit but they're more than suitable for pretty much anyone looking to do some miles on a bike.

The customisation is fantastic, with 3 different pad options available based on the width of your saddle. They also come in a slightly longer cut version for those wanting more coverage.

At under £100 they also beat their competitors on price. Perfect!

Ladies' version
Men's
Men's Long

castelli active cooling base layer

Castelli Active Cooling Sleeveless Base Layer

At a weight of just 80 grams we think this base layer from Castelli is going to be an essential piece of summer kit. Designed for use in warm temperatures, the Active Cooling base layer doesn't only wick away sweat, it uses an energy-activated cooling technology to cool you down. As pictured above, the grey print actually shows you exactly where the base layer is working.

Check it out here.

endura fs260-pro socks

Endura FS260-Pro Socks

Soft, breathable, lightweight and attractive. What more could you want from summer cycling socks? Well, the FS260-Pro socks are made from a Meryl Skinlife yarn which has antibacterial properties designed to stop them from getting smelly; a problem with many other cycling socks.

They come as a great value two-pack.

Endura FS260-Pro SL Jersey 2016

Endura FS260-Pro SL Jersey

If you can't already tell, we really like this year's Endura FS260 range. The short sleeved jersey underlines this. Laser-cut silicone grippers, a non-flap race fit and a quality, lightweight, fast-wicking material means the FS260-Pro SL offers the best price/performance ratio around. It also looks pretty sleek!

Take a closer look.

kids cycling jersey

Altura Kids' Night Vision Short Sleeved Jersey

We haven't forgotten the little ones! At Cyclesense we have an entire store devoted to kids cycling. The Night Vision youth jersey is our favourite kids' top. Highly visible in low light conditions, this jersey from Altura also boasts performance capabilities other kids' jerseys don't have. Constructed with a comfortable, loose fit in mind, the materials used here are also fast-wicking, which helps to move excess moisture away; keeping your child both dry and happy!
