On the day of my rental the weather was very nice and demand was high. I might not have been able to get mine had I just walked up that day. Online rentals allow you paying half of the rental online and the other half when you pick it up or you can just pay the entire amount online. My 2 hour rental was $18 and when I arrived they were very busy with other customers but I didn't have to wait more than about 5 minutes for my bike to appear. They aired up the tires and gave me a helmet to wear. It was a nice black bike with 21 gears and a storage bag on the front handlebars. After adjusting the seat, I was ready to go. That day my group went 14 miles on the White Oak Bayou bike trail and the bike performed flawlessly. It never missed a gear change. My rental included a 30 minute grace period which I used in its entirety because of a late start and a drink break along the way. When I returned the bike they were very friendly and thanked me for the business. I couldn't have asked for more. They have other types of bikes to rent like cruisers that have much more comfortable seats, kid bikes, bicycles for two, etc. Check out the website. If you come down to Buffalo Bayou Park to bike and need a rental this is where you should come. While the Houston B Cycles are much cheaper (and may not be available to rent) there is a vast difference in quality between their 3 speed heavy bikes and what Bike Barn has to offer.

I mentioned some of the other things I was planning to buy eventually, and instead of trying to upsell me or push products on me, the guy helping me just gave me a ton of honest, useful information. That's honestly pretty rare nowadays. He recommended some padded cycling shorts to help with the pain I was having from longer rides and being a new rider, and I also picked up a tire chain lubrica. What stood out most was that he never felt like a salesman -- he just felt like a real, down-to-earth person who clearly loves bikes and enjoys helping people. There was zero pressure, just good advice and a friendly conversation. On top of that, he was super nice and even gave me a discount he definitely didn't have to give me. Overall, it was just a really refreshing experience, and I'll absolutely be going back.

From the moment I walked through the door, I was greeted with a warm and friendly smile. The staff went above and beyond to ensure that my bike was given the utmost care and attention. The level of customer service at this bike shop was truly remarkable. The staff took the time to listen to my concerns and address any issues I had with my bike. They were knowledgeable, patient, and went out of their way to explain everything in detail. I felt valued as a customer and appreciated the extra effort they put into making sure I was satisfied. The thoroughness of the tune-up was evident in the performance of my bike. It now rides like a dream, smoothly gliding along the paths and roads. Every component was meticulously inspected and adjusted, leaving no room for any potential problems. I feel confident and safe riding my bike, knowing that it has been given the attention it deserves. I cannot recommend this bike shop enough. Their commitment to excellent customer service, attention to detail, and the exceptional tune-up they provided truly sets them apart. If you're looking for a bike shop that goes above and beyond, look no further. I guarantee you won't be disappointed. Kevin was great!

Bike tide #1 was at a park and once I decided to ride one, it took me forever to figure it out after signing up with an app. It turned out I was putting my card in wrong. I thought the machine was being mean. Ride #1 was pretty good on my 30 minute ride. It's best to check the speed adjustment and try the looseness or tightness of the handle bars, pedaling, and braking system before taking off. (1st time trail and sidewalk) My 2nd excursion was at another location close to the 1st one. Again, I was just trying to get 30 minutes of exercise in to my program. I always save about 3 to 5 minutes to make sure I place the bicycle back before an extra charge. I thoroughly enjoyed these bicycle opportunities. I'm not through yet.

But the plus side is you can literally return it to any of their locations for 1 second and then rent them again (as long as not all the bikes are rented at that location, and someone isn't waiting for a bike). If you go over the 60 minute session, I believe it's a couple more bucks for an extra 30 minutes. Such a great addition to the area, and so much fun. Check them out next time you're in the area!

From here you can ride to the Menil or around St. Thomas (check out the medieval labyrinth over by the Chapel of St. Basil) or you can hoof it to Rice University and the bike station at Hermann Park. You can also get to the Museum District from here (there's a station by the MFAH that you can drop your bike off at) or get eats in Montrose (there's another station in the other direction right in front of Underbelly).

Note that they are closed on Tuesdays and Wednesdays weekly. They don't have their own parking and there are limited spots on the street. I guess that's the point, right? Come via bike and bring your bike in so that you can get it taken care of and maybe some additional accessories for it. On my latest visit, I got the Basic tune-up package ($85) and an overhaul on the wheel hub ($35) because they noticed excessive noise on the spoke when I came in with my bike. While this does seem on the pricey side and they have other tune-up packages that are more expensive, I trust their workmanship and can walk out knowing that my bike is in the best shape and has had a comprehensive safety check. My service had about a 3-day turnaround time. I brought it in on a Thursday and they notified me on Sunday that it was complete. Do take into account that if you bring your bike in on a Sunday or Monday, this turnaround may be a little longer because of their closed days. When I received my bike, it felt good as new again and I was excited to be back on the road with it. I totally recommend EaDo Bike Co for your bike service needs. They do have bikes and accessories for sale as well. I was looking for a light to use for night riding, but the ones here were a little pricey (set for ~$150), so I opted to do some research and purchase on Amazon instead.
