Ordering & Shipping
Dispatch time
We pack orders from our Brisbane studio with care and speed. Most orders leave within 1–2 business days.
Once an order is lodged with Australia Post, we’re unable to cancel or edit it (changes at that stage can incur carrier fees).

Import duty or sales tax in your country is the recipient’s responsibility.

Pre-order items ship when stock arrives. Estimated windows are shown on each product page.
If your order includes in-stock and pre-order items, we’ll ship together when the pre-order is ready. Prefer split shipping? Email hello@birdsonbikes.com.au and we’ll arrange it (additional postage may apply).
Pre-order timeframes are estimates and can change. If you need an item by a certain date, please let us know and we’ll do our best.
Availability
We work hard to keep stock levels accurate, but occasional discrepancies happen. If an item is unavailable after purchase, we’ll contact you to offer a refund or the closest alternative.
