Biketrax

The staff are super friendly. I brought my bike in without an app and they did a quick assessment, gave me tips. I was able to get the tires inflated for easier transport home before coming back for the proper appointment for a more thorough check and tweaks.

The most helpful bike shop I've ever been in. Went in just for advice and 3 members of staff spent 15 minutes helping me out with all my questions. There are far closer bike shops to where I live but I'd happily make the extra effort to return to Biketrax.

Biketrax is the best place to rent a cycle in Edinburgh!! I've rented from them numerous times over 10+ years and done many miles both in town and in The Highlands and never had a single problem. Luke the owner, the mechanics and the entire staff are fabulous and knowledgeable and friendly. I live in NYC and have frequented dozens of bike stores for buying and repairs as well as hiring bikes for visitors, and I wish Luke would franchise to NYC! Stop your cycle search and come to Biketrax.

I hired a bike here last year and did the same again this year as the bikes are great and the staff friendly. Cycling is a great way of seeing the wider city, but unfortunately Edinburgh no longer has a bike hire scheme and this is one of only a few places that hires. The price is expensive but I understand they have to make a profit. The website is pants and the bike hire process a little complex involving deposits and signing online forms - all slightly too much for my pea sized brain. But i’ll definitely be back next year - thanks Biketrax!
