Sheldon Brown Photo We are a small neighborhood bike shop, with a small, hardworking staff. Unfortunately, we are not be able to spend time on the telephone taking complicated orders or answering technical questions. Please bear with us, as we are in the process of making changes to remedy this situation.

We have put a great deal of work into our Web site, and if you search it you will likely find answers to many technical questions:

For technical questions, please send your emails to:


We check emails many times a day and try to reply to all inquiries.

Inquiries about the status of pending orders should go to the Orders email address shown at right..

For anything to do with specific orders:

If you're placing an order, don't forget to include your shipping address! (We don't need the billing address.) We will also need your credit card number and expiration info

However, whenever possible, it will make things go smoother and faster if you would place your orders via the Web based "shopping cart" system. If you need something that is not listed, you can ask for it in the "Comments/Information" box that appears at Page 3 of the shopping cart sequence.

For information about bicycle and trailer sales, including current pricing and availability, it is better to telephone the shop and speak to Aaron or Jon Harris.

If you have technical questions, we follow the Newsgroups: rec.bicycles.tech and rec.bicycles.misc, and are active on the B.O.B., CRW, Massbike, Moulton, Tandem and Touring email lists, among others.

Telephone:

617-244-9772
Currently, we are not taking phone calls,
due to the high volume of calls and limited staff.

We are a small neighborhood shop, and one of the few e-Commerce sites to offer free technical information. Please use email for your inquiries and technical questions.

We are in the process of implementing a new online shopping cart with real time stock status. This, combined with the ongoing streamlining of our order processing Dept., will enable us to resume phone service (on a limited basis) in the future.

We can take orders by various means, but some media are quicker and more reliable than others.

Whenever possible, please use our online secure shopping cart system at http://harriscyclery.com/parts

Not everything we have is yet programmed into that system yet, but as you go through the checkout procedure, on page #3 "Preview Order" there is a "Comments/Information" box near the bottom of the page. You can use this box to type in any additional items that you would like.

If you are only buying items not yet programmed, use the generic "item"

http://harriscyclery.com/unlisted

Then you will be able to specify what you actually want in the Comments/Information box as described above.

If you _only_ want to buy a non-listed item, or wish to transmit your credit card securely for any other reason, we have a secure Supplemental Order Form page available:

http://harriscyclery.com/secure

You can also place orders by email, snail mail or FAX, but these media are much harder for us to handle, and there's a much higher likelihood of errors in transcription.

Please include all details of your order in the same message, whichever medium you use. FAXes and emails do not go to the same place, so a FAXed credit card number without order specifics will lead to delay and confusion.

FAX

617-244-1041

Our FAX is on automatic, yours should be too!

FAX is our least favorite communications medium. Please don't use FAX to ask questions that require a response. We're glad to answer questions by email or telephone.
