2. Delivery Times: Fast and Efficient Shipping Across the US
We understand that when you buy an electric bike, you're eager to get on the road and start enjoying your ride. That’s why we aim for fast, reliable delivery no matter where you are in the United States. Typically, our e-bikes are shipped within 3–5 business days from the time your order is confirmed, and you can expect your bike to arrive at your doorstep within 7–10 business days after that.
Because we ship all across the U.S., from coast to coast, delivery times can vary slightly depending on your location. Here’s a general idea of what you can expect:
- East Coast: 3–7 business days
- West Coast: 5–10 business days
- Midwest and Central US: 4–8 business days
Once your bike is on the way, we’ll provide you with a tracking number so you can follow its journey to your door in real time.
3. Shipping Costs: Transparent Pricing, No Hidden Fees
When it comes to shipping costs, we believe in transparent pricing—no hidden fees or surprise charges. At Electric Bikes USA, we offer free shipping on all orders within the continental United States. This includes all bikes, accessories, and gear that you may add to your order.
For customers in Alaska, Hawaii, or U.S. territories, shipping charges may vary, and we’ll provide you with a quote before finalizing your purchase. We strive to keep shipping affordable no matter where you’re located, so you can enjoy the best electric bikes without worrying about extra costs.
4. Packaging: Safe, Secure, and Ready to Ride
We take great care in packaging your e-bike to ensure it arrives safely at your door. Our bikes are shipped in strong, protective boxes that are designed to prevent any damage during transit. We also take extra precautions with fragile components like the battery, ensuring they’re securely packed.
Each bike is carefully inspected and partially assembled before shipping. This means that when your bike arrives, it will be mostly ready to go—just requiring some simple assembly to get it fully set up. We provide detailed assembly instructions to guide you through the final steps, and many of our customers report that the process is quick and easy. If you’re unsure about any aspect of the assembly, we also offer video tutorials and customer support to help you out.
5. Assembly: Easy Setup for a Smooth Ride
While our e-bikes come partially assembled, a few components will need to be attached before you can hit the road. These typically include:
- Attaching the front wheel
- Installing the handlebars
- Aligning and tightening the pedals
- Charging the battery
We provide a simple step-by-step assembly guide that makes this process quick and straightforward, and you’ll be riding in no time! Most customers report that they can have their bike fully assembled in less than 30 minutes, even if they’ve never assembled a bike before.
For added convenience, if you’re not comfortable assembling the bike yourself, we recommend taking it to a local bike shop for professional assembly. Many bike shops offer this service, and they can have your new e-bike ready to ride quickly. Some of our customers also choose to contact a local mechanic to handle the assembly, which is another great option.
6. What to Do Once Your Bike Arrives: Charging and First Ride
Once you’ve completed the assembly, you’ll want to give your e-bike its first charge. Here’s what you need to know:
- Charging the battery: Plug in the battery using the provided charger and charge it to full capacity (typically 4-6 hours for the first charge). This ensures you get the best performance and longevity out of your battery.
- Test ride: After your bike is charged and ready, take it for a test ride! Make sure everything is working smoothly, including the throttle, motor, and brakes. This is a good time to check that the bike is properly tuned for optimal performance.
If you run into any issues during this process, our customer support team is here to assist you and ensure your e-bike is in perfect riding condition.

If anything goes wrong within the warranty period, we’ll make sure to get you back on the road as quickly as possible.
