Sorry, but our Rental Program is currently suspended due to a complete lack of bicycle inventory.
We hope to be back with this program in 2023
GEARS : Rentals
Maybe you don’t own a bike but your friend has invited you for an afternoon joyride along the bike path. Maybe you are flying in from out of town and you prefer to leave your bike at home but still want to ride while you’re here. Or, maybe you are doing a charity ride and you want something a little lighter and faster than your knobby-tired mountain bike.
Please Note: Our rental charges are a per/calendar day fee and there are no exceptions. If your circumstance requires you to take the bike and not return it until the following day, full rental charges will apply for each calendar day you have the bike regardless of time. To confirm your rental we will be responding with a request for credit card payment and a link to our Rental Waiver. Rentals are not considered confirmed until this information has been gathered and approved.
How it Works
Before visiting your local GEARS Bike Shop to rent a bike, please make sure you have the following:
- Drivers License or Photo I.D.
- Credit Card (Your card will be pre-authorized for the retail amount of the bike you are renting, please ensure your card has the necessary credit to cover this amount. Most of the hybrids we rent are $500-$700, road bikes $1500, and electric bikes $3000)
- Water Bottle, Running Shoes, Comfortable Clothing
- (Optional) Clipless Pedals / your shoes, if you are renting a road bike and have experience with clipping in/out
Riding bicycles has inherent risk, you will be required to sign a waiver before heading out with your rental. In addition, you assume the risk and are wholly responsible for the bike against theft and damage, while it is in your care.
Comfort & Road Hybrids – $35 per day

A road hybrid is ideal for an active ride along the bike path or on the road and for those individuals who enjoy a (slightly) leaning forward cycling position.
Electric Urban (e-Bike) – $75 per day
“I’m interested in trying a new, revolutionary, technology and am wondering how this new type of bike can benefit me long term?”
An electric bike will allow you to keep up with a group you could not normally ride with, it will take you greater distances with less effort, it provides 100% confidence and success.
Road Bikes – $75 per day
“I am a fit and flexible individual who wants to ride a longer distance as fast as possible on the road.”
A road bike is ideal for a longer, faster and maybe more competitive ride on the road and for those individuals who enjoy a more forward and aerodynamic cycling position and a bike with drop handlebars.
