Everything You Need to Know About Shipping Your FatCat Mini Bike

Planning to purchase a FatCat Mini Bike this festive season?

Our shipping process ensures that your new ride arrives swiftly and safely, right in time for Christmas. Here’s a detailed guide on how we deliver adventure to your doorstep, packed with tips to help you navigate the process efficiently.

Fast and Secure Shipping

At FatCat Bikes, we understand the excitement that comes with ordering a new bike. That’s why we’ve streamlined our shipping process to ensure quick and reliable delivery:

Rapid Dispatch: Orders leave our warehouse within 72 business hours, ensuring your bike starts its journey to you without delay.

Depot Pickup: We use a partner carrier to ship bikes to over 150 depots across Australia, making it easy for you to collect your new ride.

Direct Business Delivery: For commercial addresses equipped with a forklift, direct deliveries are an option, making the process even more convenient.

Let us break down the shipping process for you:

We do things a bit differently. Instead of delivering directly to your doorstep (because the cartons are quite large), we'll send your brand- new bike in its crate to the nearest freight depot for you to collect at your convenience.

We understand the importance of fast service, so once you place your order, we'll hustle to send it from our warehouse within 72 business hours.

As soon as your shipping is scheduled (wait that 72 business hours), we'll share all the shipping details with you, including a tracking number/link.

Your FatCat adventure begins when it leaves our warehouse, and it'll be handled with the utmost care by our trusted freight company. They'll keep you in the loop with regular updates. 

Why Choose FatCat for Christmas?

Christmas is the perfect time to gift yourself or a loved one a FatCat Mini Bike. With our efficient shipping, you’re guaranteed to have your bike ready for the holiday season. Here are some key points to consider:

Free Accessories Shipping: When you purchase a bike, shipping for any additional accessories is on us.

Special Delivery Options: While we offer free shipping to many areas, some locations may incur additional charges. We provide all the details upfront during the checkout process.

Preparing for Your FatCat Delivery

To ensure a smooth delivery, here’s what you can do:

Check Dimensions:

The dimensions of our crates are 1265mm in length, 505mm in width, and 850mm in height. These cartons weigh approximately 90kg. The cartons contain the bike in a partially assembled state.

FatCat bikes are shipped in secure crates that are easy to manage when it comes to assembly and disassembly. They're designed to fit neatly in the back of most one-tonne utes.

Because of the carton size, our delivery process involves bringing them to your nearest freight depot, where you'll be able to collect your order.

The bike's overall dimensions are as follows: 1600mm in length, 800mm in width, and 900mm in height.

However, it's worth mentioning that some resourceful FatCat owners have found a way to reduce the height for transport. They simply undo the handlebar clamps, rotate the handlebars down, and the height can be reduced to 800mm.

Plan Your Pickup: When collecting from a depot, check the location and working hours to plan your pickup accordingly.

Maximise Your Shipping Experience

To get the most out of our shipping services:

Order Early: Especially around busy periods like Christmas, ordering early ensures that there are no delays in getting your bike.

Stay Informed: Once your order is dispatched, we provide tracking information so you can follow your bike’s journey to your chosen depot or address.
