Cruiser, hybrid or e-bike? Choosing a rental bike

October 8, 2026

The right bike makes a ride fun; the wrong one makes it a workout. Here’s a quick guide.

Match the bike to the route

  • Cruiser: upright and comfortable for flat, paved paths and riding along the water.
  • Hybrid: gears and lighter frames for longer rides and gentle hills, on pavement or packed gravel.
  • E-bike: pedal assist flattens hills and stretches your range, so the whole group keeps the same pace.

Bring everyone along

Kids’ bikes are sized by wheel, so tell us your child’s height. Trail-a-bikes and child trailers let younger kids ride with you.

Before you go

Every rental includes a helmet, a patch kit and a pump. Check the forecast; if it rains, call us before your rental starts and we’ll move your dates if bikes are free.
