Long-distance bicycle logistics across the United States is our specialty. Every shipment travels through our vetted carrier network, fully tracked in real time from pickup to delivery. As domestic shipping, there is no customs clearance needed, so your bike moves seamlessly across state lines.
buycycle is the leading marketplace for pre-owned bikes, and our shipping service was built to support the cycling community. Thousands of bikes are bought, sold, and shipped across the country every month through our platform. Whether your shipment is related to a buycycle transaction, a race, a relocation, or a holiday, our logistics network is open to everyone.
This route is priced from $95 per shipment. We offer a fixed price with no distance surcharges or hidden fees. Every shipment includes full coverage against damage and loss.
Flying with a bike box means airline surcharges, size restrictions, and the risk of damage in cargo holds. General couriers are not equipped for oversized sporting goods. Our dedicated service solves both problems: purpose-built packaging, careful handling, and door-to-door convenience at a predictable price.

About this route
Ship between Bentonville's 130 miles of mountain bike trails and Illinois' 18-mile Chicago Lakefront Trail. From the Razorback Greenway to the 45-mile Tunnel Hill trail through Shawnee National Forest, your bike moves from the Ozarks' MTB capital to Midwest urban and trail riding.
Illinois offers more cycling variety than its flat reputation suggests. The Chicago Lakefront Trail runs along Lake Michigan with skyline views, while the city's 200-plus miles of bike lanes make it one of America's most rideable urban centers. Downstate, the Tunnel Hill trail cuts through Shawnee National Forest past sandstone bluffs and creek crossings, and the Kickapoo State Park area serves up surprisingly rugged mountain biking. Gravel riding has exploded in central Illinois, where quiet farm roads and minimal traffic create ideal conditions for long, meditative rides. Moving a bike between Bentonville and Illinois means accessing both premier singletrack and one of the Midwest's strongest urban cycling cultures.
Shipping between Arkansas and Illinois covers about 550 miles through the Mississippi River valley. Each bicycle is carefully packaged to protect shifting systems, wheel bearings, and frame paint during transit. Full coverage is included with every shipment, giving you confidence whether you are sending a mountain bike north or a commuter bike south. Real-time tracking keeps you informed from the Ozarks to the Prairie State.
