Why Hire a Bike?
Sure you could bring your own bikes, here's a few reasons to leave them at home.
5 Reasons Hiring from us makes sense
1 / Less stuff to pack
Most people visit Bright for 2 nights and go on a bike ride for 1 day. Bikes are bulky, you need a bike rack, a trailer or a large vehicle to transport them. And how many times have you forgotten something which scuppers your plans? We get it!
Consider leaving the bikes at home enjoying having less stress and more time when packing for your holiday. Hire from us.
2 / Lower cost
Having your bikes serviced and ready to take away on holiday can cost many hundreds of dollars, or you don't get them serviced and you run the risk of having a breakdown and a poor holiday experience.
We have chosen top of the range bikes from Specialized, they are super high quality, brand new and regularly serviced. It can actually make financial sense to hire.
3 / Security and safety
Your holiday accommodation may not have secure bike storage and charging an Electric bike can be a hassle, added some accommodation providers are not happy charging electric bikes on the premises. Leave it to us, we will take care of storage and charging!
4 / It's all about you
If you're an early riser we offer delivery from 8am so you can avoid the heat of high summer. Need a bit more time in the morning for that second coffee or to get the kids ready. Totally fine we deliver until 10:30am! Select 'Your' prefered time and we will be there.
5 / It's all included in the price
Hiring from us is convenient, efficient and great value for money. The cost of hire includes both delivery to and collection from your accommodation and our prices are on par with hiring from a shop. Check out our Google reviews and see what our guests have to say.
So jump online, choose your bikes and we will deliver them to your door.
We deliver within the Greater area of Bright, meaning Porepunkah, Wandilagong and out to Freeburgh.
Your questions answered.
What area does Chainstays Service?
We deliver within the Greater area of Bright, meaning Porepunkah, Wandilagong and out to Freeburgh. Need bikes further afield? Get in touch via our contact page and let us know what you need, we will always assist where we can.
Which accommodation do we service?
We will deliver to all Holiday accommodation including caravan and holiday parks where we can gain access.
Do we provide helmets?
Sure thing, we will provide an Australian Standard helmet with every bike and by law it must be worn when riding. With Kids bikes we will bring along multiple helmet sizes to ensure a great fit.
How do I know which bike size to choose?
Some bikes are One size fits all, if that's the case there will only be one size to choose from.
Where a size choice is available, ie. Small, Medium, Large (this refers to bike's size) choose the size which is best suited to your height. In each category we show you the range for which the bike size is suited.
On the booking page we also ask for each Rider's height so we can correctly set a comfortable saddle height.
Do we offer half day and multi day rental?
We offer full, single day hire.
We've found most groups prefer to ride one day during their stay or two days separated by a gap so we have kept our bookings to single day. Also if you're staying in accommodation that does not have secure storage for the bikes we don't want you to stress.
If you would like multi day hire simply get in touch with us here and we will organise your bikes to suit your needs.
How that will work?
We will collect your bike at the end of the day and give your bikes a bike Spa, charge them (if it's an E-bike) and deliver it back to you the following morning. Giving you more holiday time and less to think about.
Do I need to be at my accomodation when the bikes are delivered and collected?
Yes, our staff will need to sight the Drivers license used to make your booking please have it handy when we drop off your bikes, we will also give you a quick rundown on how your bikes work and answer any last minute questions you may have.
We won't keep you long as we know you will be super keen to get out for a ride.
As for collection, again yes we require the guest who made the booking to be available when the bikes are collected.
For both drop off and collection we aim to complete in under 10 minutes at your accommodation so we don't mind if you're enjoying a morning coffee at drop off or a glass of wine when we collect. It's all about convenience for you.
