99% BUILDS NOW AVAILABLE ON ALL BIKES
Since the assembly is performed by hand and per order, it may take 6-8 business days for the assembly of your new bike to be completed and shipped.
Please allow 15-20 business days on select Framed custom built bikes.
Our $99 Bike Assembly is here to help you maximize your riding time. Just tighten the handlebars, install the front wheel,pedals and ride! This process is done with care, by our experienced professional technicians to ensure that your bike not only lasts, but most importantly is covered by any manufacturer's warranty.
Our certified team of technicians spend the time to fine tune the bike so you don't have to. During this process, our technicians will go through each of the bearing components, ensuring a solid, smooth ride from the first turn of the cranks. From there, the wheels are taken off individually for the truing process. Making sure your wheel is true is key to prolonging the life of your rims, and ultimately your whole bicycle. After this happens, the rear wheel is installed with care to make sure that the chain is tensioned properly and that the free wheel of the bike is in proper working order. The brakes are then adjusted and tested for reliable stopping power. During the assembly the bike goes through a thorough quality control check to ensure your bike is up to our high standards and yours.
For shipping, the handlebars and the front wheel are removed, hand packed, and padded with your bike's frame to ensure the safest possible transport. Since the assembly is performed by hand and per order, it may take 6-8 business days for the assembly of your new bike to be completed and shipped.
*Any accessory order with the bicycle such as pedals, computers, fenders or racks will not be installed prior to shipping. Accessories can get damaged in shipping and will need to be installed by the customer when the package has been delivered to its final shipping destination.

Key Features of Salomon X Ultra 3 GTX Hiking Shoes
I loved these shoes for about 9 months. My feet didn't sweat in them, they are insanely comfortable, they look good enough to wear outside, and they are great for hiking.
Unfortunately, they are a poor choice for anyone who enjoys scrambling and jumping. The pressure from landing a jump onto a boulder from about 5 feet away was enough to split both toes, rendering them utterly non-waterproof.
I still wear them, because they are super comfy, but I am really bummed that they are destroyed after less than a year of wearing them once or twice a week. It's clearly a design defect, the plastic in this area should be more flexible, that kind of brittle plastic only makes sense in parts of the shoe that never have to flex.
I have been wearing X Ultras (many pairs for about a decade and have hiked hundreds of miles in them over the years. The last pair I bought (about a year ago) and have only hiked in a few times, wore extremely fast and both toe areas have completely worn off. Also some stitching is coming apart and one of the laces has severed. I was very surprised and contacted costumer support. They informed me this is normal wear and tear and will not replace them. Needless to say I'm not impressed... Will be wearing Keen's from now on.
I bought these shoes for lighter hiking shoe and have loved them. Able to keep my feet dry while hiking on wet muddy trail and have very good grip on slick rocks. If hiking in dry climates, breathability might be an issue since these are GTX so I switch to my other pair of Salomoms
I have had four pairs of this shoe. Excellent footwear. I live in a ski town,keeps foot warm in the winter and cool in the summer. Keeps wetness out. Best international travel light hiker that is ready for what ever comes up.
I have a narrow foot and these fit a little tight in the forefoot area. I can't lace them snug or they would be uncomfortable. But as I wear them, they are getting less tight. And the garage for the lace is in a poor placement. The top strap goes over the garage making it difficult to insert. Soles are very solid. Good traction. Insole is comfrotable.
I lamented every finding a replacement for my Lowa hiking shoes. I have a C-width foot, and most recreational footwear is too wide. I decided to try on the X Ultra 3 gtx because Salomon is the only brand that ever made a cross-country ski boot that fit me properly. I have not been disappointed. As comfortable as my FootJoy Contour golf shoes and as much support as I need for moderate trails. Some may find the toggle-tug lacing system a bit foreign, but users of Salomon x-c ski boots will be in familiar territory, and I find it easier than conventional laces to give me a snug midfoot and a generous forefoot. My only complaint is that the goggle itself is excessively stiff.
I've owned a pair for about a year now, have around 300+ miles on them, the shoe is comfortable (all Salomon shoes/boots I've owned have been the most comfortable of anything I've owned, the sole is wearing much better than the Vasques these shoes replaced. Midsole still supportive, will be interested to see how long that lasts. My only gripe - a partial failure of the quick lacing system - one of the "laces" has become frayed and you can't move the slide lock past it. I can still get the shoe on and off but it is annoying - I will not get a quick lace shoe again.
I purchased my 4th pair of Salomon X-Ultra GTX shoes online through a retail store. I received my shoes, took them out of their packaging and threw away the box. About a week later I put them on for the first time and noted that they fit smaller than my other three pair. Although I purchased a USA 10.5 the shoes fit more like a size 10. I physically measured my old shoes vs my new shoes and noted that the new pair were smaller although labelled a USA size 10.5 as ordered. As I threw away the shoe-box, the retailer will no longer take them back. I contacted Salomon and they suggested that as the new shoes were made in Vietnam there was a chance that the manufacturing size was slightly different (my last three pairs of shoes were made in India). However, Salomon will not warranty their product if if was purchased from a retail vendor. Salomon will not even swap my new unworn size 10.5 for an 11...which is now what I need.
