Overall Just Ok Customer service was decent (very prompt email responses but I had to reach out to get the tracking number). I was unhappily surprised by the condition of the bike -- it was listed as "excellent" but I'd describe it as "good" -- lots of scratches and dings on every surface, some rusting, some damage to wires, surface damage to gears, wear on the seat and so forth. I haven't bought a used bike before so maybe I'm just not familiar with the condition... but I'd describe this bike as having been treated roughly.

Liv bike I couldn't find a Liv bike anywhere near me and most online carriers would not ship. Bike Rent NYC helped me choose which model and size was right for me and shipped it to Florida for only $40. Great experience, great bike, exactly what I wanted rides like a dream. The two bottom corners of the box split opened and the box itself looked pretty beat up. Surprisingly there was only a few scratches on the bike. The blue-green color is even prettier in person. Highly recommend buying from Bike RENT NYC!

Head over hills in Central Park due to lack of staff pointing out basic operating procedures. I'm from Australia where the rear brake is operated by the left hand. Operating staff should have pointed out that at NYC the left hand operates the front pedal. Surely every bike hire should include a brief handover about operating procedures. Unfortunately, I used what I thought was the rear brake which was in fact the front one. Head over hills. 30K hospital bill. Thank you very much, Brian

Watch your credit card statements After we returned our bikes, we were told our deposit had been refunded back onto our credit card. This did not happen. Several phone calls later, the issue was not resolved. Only when we involved the credit card company did we finally receive our deposit back. I understand mistakes and glitches can happen, but it should not take more than one month to correct.

Not good at all... I ordered a bicycle from the Bike Rent NYC online shop. 10 days later I had to call them about the shipment. When I received the shipment then two days later it was a completely different and wrong product. Customer service was of little help and made promises that were never fulfilled. After another week I still haven’t received my product and the contacts will not answer their phones or emails and their mailboxes are full. Consumers beware.
