Sprocket Center is open weekdays (Mon-Fri). Most orders are processed and shipped from our California warehouse within 1-3 business days after the order is received. If order fulfillment is expected to take longer than 5 business days, we will contact you via email or phone. When you place an order, your credit card or PayPal account is charged immediately. This allows us to quickly begin processing and building your order. For special-order and non-returnable items such as wheelsets, rims, brake rotors, we may require phone contact with you to verify the order details before processing begins. Orders that request shipping to an alternate or un-verified shipping address may be delayed and placed on hold until the payment can be verified by our processor. We do this to provide a secure and safe transaction for both parties.
