Bike hire in Auckland

How it works

  1. 1

    Pick your bike. Choose road or gravel, then your frame size, whether you want the bikepacking kit, and your dates. Tell us your height and we'll set the saddle for you. If you already know your saddle height, send it and we'll match it.

  2. 2

    Book online. It takes a couple of minutes, and we'll email you to confirm.

  3. 3

    We deliver. Your bike turns up the evening before your hire starts, at your home, hotel or holiday rental anywhere in urban Auckland.

  4. 4

    We collect. We pick it up the evening after your hire ends, from the same place or from wherever you finish.

New Zealand law says you have to wear a helmet, whatever your age. Every bike comes with one.

Prices and what's included

A road bike is $180 for the first day, then $80 for each day after. Extra bikes on the same dates are $80 a day each. Pick a bike above to see its rates.

The bikepacking kit is $45 on the first day, then $15 a day, and never more than $250 however long you keep it.

Every hire includes a helmet in your size, pedals (flat, SPD or SPD-SL), a rear light, a lock, a bike computer mount and a maintenance kit. There are no cleaning, admin or booking fees.

Delivery and collection are included within 8 km of the city centre. Up to 20 km out, they are $80 for each set of dates, however many bikes are on them. You'll see it in the cart before you book. All prices include GST.

Road bike hire in Auckland

A full carbon road bike on 50mm carbon wheels, made for sealed roads and long days out. The gears are low enough for the climbs in the Waitākere Ranges, and high enough that you won't run out along Tāmaki Drive. The 32mm tubeless tyres smooth out rough chipseal without slowing you down.

Gravel bike hire in Auckland

The same carbon frame on DT Swiss wheels and 45mm tubeless gravel tyres. It's built for the forest roads at Riverhead and Woodhill, the farm tracks south of the city, and any ride that mixes seal with gravel. The wide tyres are forgiving, so you don't have to plan your route around the bike, and the clutched rear derailleur keeps the chain quiet and in place on rough ground.

Bikepacking and touring bike hire

Add the bikepacking kit to either bike: saddle, handlebar, frame and top tube bags, a front light, and two bottle cages on the fork if you want them. That's enough for a weekend away without a rack or panniers, and the weight sits low so the bike still handles well.

Put it on the gravel bike for the Hauraki Rail Trail and the forest roads, or on the road bike for fast days between towns. It's a good fit for any multi-day trip out of Auckland, or any ride where you'd rather not wear a backpack.

What happens if I damage the bike?

The most you'll pay for damage is $500 per bike, per hire. The Terms of Hire explain what that covers. We photograph every bike before it goes out and again when we collect it, so there's a clear record of its condition.

Can I cancel or change my dates?

Cancel more than 48 hours before delivery and it costs nothing. Anything you've paid is refunded in full. If the bikes are available, we'll move your dates once for free, right up until delivery. A bad weather forecast is a good enough reason. The full details are in the cancellation terms.
