Until further notice masks are required inside for all individuals age 2 and up in Marblehead and Salem Cycle.
If you are sick or feeling unwell please do not come to the store and if you bring your unvaccinated kids, please have them mask-up.
If you can't wear a mask please call us when you are outside and we will be glad to meet you outside, but you must stay 6 feet away.
Shortage of Bicycle and Parts Inventory
Due to multiple factors there is a huge worldwide shortage on bicycles and bicycle parts. We luckily work with the two largest suppliers in the industry and many others. We placed our orders early and found other brands and suppliers that had options. 90% of our bicycle inventory is online. Our website inventory is updated every 2 hours. If you see something you like we suggest buying it thru the website, we will contact you when we have the order ready and arrange a date to pick it up. On line orders typically take about 3-5 days to process if they are in-store. If they are in a warehouse then they could take a couple of weeks. Popular models like mountain bikes and hybrids can sell through in a day. There is a wide spread shortage of bikes and parts. We are seeing backorders going into 2024.
Service Backlog
Due to the shortage on parts and the demand for our services repair times are longer then normal. Currently we are seeing service booked out about 1 - 2 weeks. To help with the backlog of service requests we are asking you to schedule tune-ups online through our scheduler. We are currently not assembling bikes purchased elsewhere. We are not servicing bikes purchased at Walmart, Dicks, Target, and other Big Box stores. We only are service electric bicycles either purchased from us or equipped with Yamaha, Bosch, Bafang, or Shimano motors.
