I spend a week or two in Calgary every year for family vacations, and have been renting bikes from these guys for many years now. They rent good mid-level bikes that are well maintained and reliable, and this makes it a lot easier than traveling with my own bike. This year they went beyond expectations. The bike that I was to pick up was not returned on time by the prior renter, and rather than that being my loss they comped me with a different bike (mtb instead of road) for a couple of days, and then swapped it for a better bike when one was available. At the end of the week they did not charge me for the upgraded bike I had ended up with compared to my planned rental. They always take the time to swap the bike over to my own peddles and saddle if I've brought them, and make sure I'm set with tubes or CO2 before I take it. I've had the occasional minor mechanical in prior years, and they are great about just fixing it quickly and getting me back out. Thanks guys, I always enjoy logging some good miles on the Calgary and Kananaskis roads and trails, and look forward to renting again next year. I recommend this shop without reservation.
