Bike hire

Got a bucket list ride you want to do?

We are making changes to our bike hire offer. At the moment we have a small selection of mountain bikes with everything you need to hire for the day. Whether you want to ride the South Downs Way, or the King Alfred's Way, or you just want to have fun around the city on a tandem.

All hires include helmets, pumps, locks and puncture repair kit at no extra charge. Although please note our shop is closed on Sunday and Monday, but we may be able to accommodate out of hours bike returns by arrangement.

The Eastbourne drop off service is currently suspended until further notice. We are working to get it back up and running as soon as possible.

Please note we cannot refund early returns.

How it works

Step 1

Decide on your route, bike type(s) and duration.

Step 2

You will need to know the heights of each rider to select the most suitable bike. Then complete the online booking form, sign our waiver, pay a deposit and your bikes will be reserved for you. The balance will be paid when you collect from the shop.

Step 3

Bring photo ID to collect your bikes. Allow us time to get you set up on your bike fitting you with helmets, lock, pump and puncture repair kit. We’ll give you some route advice and then you’ll be on your way! Please note that if you would like extras such as pedal changes, racks, extra bottle cages etc there will be an extra charge to pay for the labour.
