I was riding my bike nearby and had an issue. I went inside to ask to borrow a tool and one of the employees took the time to come outside and help me fix my bike. They are super knowledgeable and kind! Next time I am in the area and need a rental, I will be coming here! Thank you!!!!!!!!

Really nice staff, the process takes a few minutes and they’re really flexible with time, which is highly appreciate it. They even have a recommended route based on the number of hours. Their electric bikes work great for small trips, and are really powerful.
