"Everything with bikes online was great. Ordering process was easy, and even with a slight delay in shipping customer support kept me up to date. The bike is proving to be even better then I expected."
"I have purchased 2 bikes and several accessories from bikesonline and I have been impressed with the quality of their products....shipping and customer service .... Love the fact that they sell direct to the consumer...I only buy my biking equipment online from 4 direct manufactured sellers and BikesOnline is at the top of the list...always my go to .... Highly recommend Polygon bikes"
"Everything was great from ordering services to customer services."
"I placed an order over 2 weeks ago for a bike that was supposed to be in stock and the bike never shipped. I've emailed them multiple times and no response whatsoever. They processed the payment immediately and but won't respond. I'm beginning to think it was a scam and that I should contact my bank. "
"I’m going to make this short and sweet just like bikesonline did for me. BikesOnline offers quality products, amazing prices, quick shipping, and excellent customer service, and at the end of the day that’s all I’m looking for in any and every company I shop with. Cheers!"
"Everything about the experience was first rate. Hard to believe that the bike is priced so competitively, ships free and arrives on time when other resources are apologizing for the long delays. The bike was tuned and ridable right out of the box.
I will definitely look to Bikesonline for future bikes."
"If it looks to good to be true, it probably is. The bike looked good. price was much less than other comparable offerings out their. Well, I found out why. The bike I received was missing parts. It was not a complete bicycle. I submitted a ticket. I have emailed and called multiple times. Was asked three times to send pictures in. I was told two days in a row I would have an answer as to how the issue was going to be resolved that day or with in 24 hours. What other answer is their than "we are sending the rest of your bike?" Then I hear nothing at all or an email telling me thanks for contacting them. Now I am told it takes 5 days to check with the parts department to see if they have a saddle and seat post in stock. It's been 4 weeks since they took my money and I still do not have a complete bicycle. What I have so far looks good, unfortunately it's not worth dealing with bikesonline.com.
Update:
Bikesonline.com sent me the missing parts within two weeks of me notifying them of the issue. The bike is super high quality. I would have had to pay more anywhere else for a bike configured the same. Bikesonline.com does have high quality bikes. They just need to work on their customer service a little.

“Thank you for your feedback and our apologies that your bike arrived from factory with a missing seatpost and saddle!! Our customer service agent had an issue obtaining access to your pictures so it did take some time to see them.
We are mainly a distributer for Polygon and Marin bikes and unfortunately do not have extra parts to send out. It does take time to check with our team to see if we can get components. Your situation was finally elevated to the customer service manager today and we have shipped you a replacement saddle and seatpost. We will be looking into why this took so long to resolve.
Thank you for your patience and again our apologies for the missing parts and the extended delay”
"After eagerly waiting for over 2 months for my bike to arrive it shows up damaged. The box itself was practically open and the neck, brake lever, stem, and part of the frame looked as if it had been brushed on a gravel road. No frame or major damage, but, after waiting and paying a lot of money, it was not the "unveiling" of my BRAND NEW bike I had imagined.
I proceeded to contact customer service and was met with a complete lack of sympathy and offered a "$40 store credit". No option to repair or mend the damage, simply "this might have happened during the shipping". After several additional emails expressing my frustration and hoping to resolve the matter, I finally caved and accepted an offer to get the matter over and done with.
Personally, I would never buy anything from Bikesonline.com again due to the poor customer service, however, I know a couple of people who waited a few days for their bikes and had no problems. "
“Rick,
Thank you for your feedback and our apologies for delayed shipping , we are experiencing massive delays at the ports in LA that we have no control over. We are sorry about the scratches your bike received during shipping. Our agent did apologize for the cosmetic damage when you reached out to us. Our customer service manager will have a look at the emails you and our agent shared. ”
"…this online purchase and delivery was everything the company promised, and better than I expected. Kudos BikesOnline for the easy online interface and consistent customer communication. "
"I ordered my bike on the 19th and it is now the 27th and still hasn’t even shipped. I’ve called and left a voicemail and left 2 emails with no response. When I ordered the bike it said 24-72 hours it’d ship. It also said I’d have it in 9 days. It hasn’t even shipped after 8 days. Honestly I’m just frustrated with absolutely no communication. I’m terrified if it comes in damaged and I have to deal with them again. You better have a lot of patience and read all of the fine print before you do business with this company.
Update: I finally got an email back (after they responded to this review) and they simply said give it another week and they’ll get back to me. So their original ship in 24hours has turned into 2 weeks. Their response stating 5-7 days to process is contradictory to their website saying SHIP in 24-72 hours of purchase. They had a back ally covid update link that did say 5-7 days to process. Covid has been here for 2 years pick a new excuse or update your actual shipping tab. "
“Hi,
Thank you for your feedback and we are so sorry about the delays. We are working to receive better communication from our warehouse team when this occurs. We did have a back up that we were unaware of and are now back on track and your bike has been processed for shipping. You will receive an email shortly with a tracking number. We do state on our website that it can take between 5-7 business days to process orders. ”
"Great experience with this company shipping was very fast as well "
"I took this bike to Colombia, with the geography of my country I love the bike !! Great service, beautiful box and packaging !! "
"Paragon Mountain bike arrived in two months as promised. Out-of-the-box, good bike as advertised except rear disc brake non-functional. My first mistake was not returning the bike immediately. Being a rookie with disc brakes, not wanting to wait another two months for a replacement, and unaware of the potential cost/complexity of repair, I took it to my local bike mechanic. He worked with Shimano in a multi step diagnosis/repair process, after which Shimano declared it defective and sent a free replacement (thumbs up Shimano!). Unfortunately, the unexpected labor was not free. My second mistake was not going through Bikes Online repair process. As clearly stated in the warranty, if you don’t go through their process then Bikes Online won’t pay a dime to fix defective parts they shipped. Live and learn. Good bike. Advise to return immediately if not perfect on the box. "
"The bike I got had a scratched up frame where bare aluminum was showing. Box had multiple layers of tape on it. Clearly been shipped and returned multiple times. Order it if you want a scratched up used bike."
“Hi,
Thank you for your feedback and we are so sorry your bike arrived with scratches and your box looked as though it was opened. We had a look and confirmed your bike did come from our warehouse in Simi Valley, California to your home on New York, as you can see on your tracking history.
Our returned bikes are sent to our Petaluma office, which is 7 hours north of our warehouse. Our boxes ship out brand new and if there is damage along the way FedEx usually re-tapes them be sure nothing falls out or they return to sender if damage is severe.
We see your bike is in transit and due to arrive to us Monday, September 23rd when we will issue a refund as you requested.”
"Bikes online is one of the best places to buy a bike. Excellent customer service. I changed my order after placing it the customer service rep was very helpful in changing it. The bike arrived in excellent condition on the promised delivery date and I was able to set it up quickly. The quality of the bike was excellent(top notch). I highly recommend buying from Bikes Online. I am not going to buy any more bikes from stores. "
"The level of components offered on the bicycle could not be beat. Very impressed with the quality of the paint, the components, and the shipping. Customer service was excellent. "
A rep from Bikes Online, BikesOnlineS, has responded:
“Hello Tyler,
We want to apologize for the experience you had with your recent bike purchase. Due to carrier congestion and technical issues we have seen many tracking numbers delayed in their step by step tracking resulting in very minimal visibility on ours and the customers end. We have responded to your existing customer service inquiry's and reviewed any existing communications to make sure we didn't miss any other issues. We have confirmed your tracking with our carrier and it is due to arrive today or tomorrow depending on route schedule. Hope you have a wonderful holiday season. ”
