Why 4 stars? Because I really enjoyed seeing this side of Houston…read more --- --- --- Since moving back to the Houston area nearly a year and a half ago, I've remained as unimpressed as I was during my first 22 years here. The cost of living and weather are great, but we much preferred our time living in Tampa. One reason is the beauty, or lack thereof when driving on most interstates. Billboards, car dealerships and businesses stacked on top of businesses are basically all that one sees. What does all of that have to do with Bike Barn Bayou Rental? Well, my friend was coming to visit Houston for the first time and I wanted to showcase the city in the best way that I could. Since I know he loves cycling, I figured that would be pretty ideal, and it ended up really working out! I called ahead since I'd never been here before and was told that there were plenty of bikes available to rent and that I could just show up. A couple of hours later, we arrived and the process was pretty easy. We filled out waivers and were given a quick explanation of where the trail would take us, and then we headed out. We had the bikes for 2 hours, but completed the entire main trail in about 30 minutes. I stopped back in the shop to ask where else they would recommend we ride, but I also requested a new bike. Every time I downshifted below the highest gear, the chain would consistently pop whenever I'd push slightly harder than normal. I was given an alternate bike and suggestions on where to ride next, which was great. But unfortunately, the new bike had the exact same problem. I sucked it up and just dealt with the chain popping, but it was definitely annoying. However, the overall experience was still a great one, as I was able to see a ton of Houston from an angle I'd never experienced before. The entire ride along the Buffalo Bayou was great, but also, we ended up riding all through downtown and came across some cool parks and other really nice spots. It helped give me an appreciation for Houston that I've definitely never had before. So thanks, BBBR!

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!

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.

Still a lot of construction and there are multiple closures along the trail, but the completed paved sections are smooth, open and wide. Much safer to be able to go under bridges to avoid crossing major intersections. Need a break? Lots of park benches along the way. Thirsty? The new water bottle refill stations are strategically positioned. Don't have a bike? Look for the hourly rental stations available. The trail has detention capacity that has been expanded after Hurricane Harvey that will hopefully decrease the risk of flooding to homes and property along the bayou. Nice to see so many birds, like herons, cormorants, egrets and ducks, enjoying the water along the trail. Perfect for a long bike ride on a sunny weekend.

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.

My partner and I visited your store for the first time because we wanted to check out the bikes you…read morehave for sale and for rent. When we walked in, there was no one at the front, and we weren't greeted. We spent several minutes looking around without anyone acknowledging us. I pulled one bike out of the rack simply to sit on it and see if it was the right size. At that point, an employee immediately approached me and said, "I don't want anyone pulling bikes out and sitting on them." There were no signs indicating that customers should not do this, and no one had spoken to us beforehand. I'm a 53-year-old professional, and I expect to be treated with courtesy and respect. The way I was approached made me feel like I was a teenager causing problems in the store, when all I was trying to do was determine whether the bike fit me. First impressions matter. Instead of feeling welcomed as a potential customer, I felt reprimanded. A much better approach would have been to greet us when we came in, ask if we needed assistance, and politely explain your policy if customers aren't permitted to remove bikes from the rack themselves. UPDATE (08/01/2026): Don't waste your time visiting this place. Customer Service is horrible. We bought 2 e-bikes from Planetary Cycles this weekend. Go check them out! Your loss Eado Bike Co.! When you treat customers with respect, this is how you get rewarded.
