Signatures Required

Due to the high value of the ebike, we provide a signature-required shipping method at no additional cost to you.

The shipping carrier is instructed to obtain a signature before delivery and is not permitted to leave packages unattended. If you miss three delivery attempts, a package with a signature requirement will be automatically returned. Customers will be responsible for any additional fees incurred due to the missed signature. Please note that the signature service does not cover non-bike items.

- Refused packages (except items damaged during transit), An additional restocking fee of $100 - $200 will be charged based on your address to partially cover our shipping and restocking costs. *The actual charge will be estimated by FedEx.

Your order need a signature upon delivery. If there is no one around to receive the package, the courier will leave a delivery attempted card on your door.
