Long-distance cycling transport 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 $97 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.
Whether you are chasing Marin County, Big Sur, Mt. Tamalpais or simply moving to a new city, our service connects California and Colorado without the hassle of flying with a bike box or driving across the country.

About this route
Ship between California's 600-mile Pacific Coast Highway and Colorado's Boulder cycling mecca with Independence Pass topping out at 12,095 feet. Two of America's most celebrated cycling states, from ocean bluffs to Rocky Mountain summits.
The cycling corridor between California and Colorado links two of the country's deepest talent pools and most passionate riding communities. California riders regularly train on the steep switchbacks of Mount Baldy and the long coastal flats south of Big Sur, building the fitness needed for Colorado's thin-air passes like Loveland, Vail, and Guanella. Boulder alone hosts more professional cyclists per capita than any other US city, and its network of canyon roads, including Flagstaff and Sunshine, provides perfect intervals at altitude. Riders traveling between these states often do so for events like the Triple Bypass ride across three 11,000-foot passes or the Belgian Waffle Ride in San Marcos.
Shipping a bike from California to Colorado covers approximately 1,000 to 1,200 miles depending on origin and destination, crossing the Mojave Desert and Utah's high plateau along the way. Every bicycle is carefully boxed with protective padding around disc rotors, thru-axles, and carbon frames to handle the journey's elevation changes and temperature swings. Full coverage comes standard on each shipment, so whether you are sending a lightweight climbing bike to Boulder or a mountain rig headed for Downieville, your equipment is protected from pickup to delivery. Real-time tracking lets you monitor progress every step of the way.
