Peter set me up with a Raleigh Capri, and he had no idea what he was unleashing! Compared with the heavy mountain bike I had been struggling on, the Raleigh felt like it had a turbo engine--and everyone kept telling me, "You got a cool bike!" The difference was incredible. I went from working at my absolute limit on rides to Cabrillo National Monument, the Great Western Loop, Mount Laguna, and the Via Capri climb up Mount Soledad to actually leading my friends on the hills. Peter didn't simply provide a great bike; he shared his knowledge and helped set me up to truly enjoy cycling. I've now retired my 32-pound mountain bike, started riding with clipless pedals, and am training for a solo, self-supported endurance challenge. I can't thank Peter enough for his guidance, encouragement, and excellent service. If you want more than just a bike rental--and would appreciate someone who genuinely wants to help you have the best possible riding experience--I highly recommend Peter and his company. --Mike from Nepal read more

Exceptional Service!!! My bike had a small mechanical issue that was not anyone's fault. Peter went out of his way to accommodate me, and even offered to pick up my bike at my hotel so I could do an extra ride! Will use them again when I'm in the San Diego area. read more

Peter is an awesome guy who knows his stuff. Best place in San Diego for bike rentals! Will definitely be back again! read more

Turned a bike in a for a tune up plus some other fixes, including the seat. I was called and told it was ready for pickup. When I was a block away, I got another call and was told that they werent able to repair the seat of my bike. When I arrived, the owner told me that the bike was 'un-rideable', becuase they were not able to repair the seat. But in the process of trying to fix it, made the seat worse. The seat is now unusable. The owner charged me full price (well over $100) for a bike that left in worse shape, and didnt tell me until I showed up. What a ripoff. Update (after owner commented on my post) Most of my reviews for businesses are positive. I understand you don't care for this review, maybe do better. read more

Good experience here. I "walked up" to the shop the day I wanted to rent and they took good care of me. The city bike I rented was in good condition with sharp shifters and tight brakes. I gave it a good 40 mile ride from Cabrillo National Monument to Mission Bay and back to the shop and all systems worked well for the whole ride. Good customer sevice and overall a good experience! read more

If all service providers were as professional, courteous and thoughtful as Peter and his Stay Classy Bikes, the world would be a better place. On referral from our hotel, we rented 5 bikes from Stay Classy, and asked to fill out a form with our height and bike preferences. Delivered to our hotel door, on-time, were five great bikes, with locks and helmets, that were perfect size and in great working order. We got to spend the day on the bike-friendly streets of San Diego and went from downtown to Barrio Logan to Liberty Station and back to Gaslamp and it was FANTASTIC! After storing our bikes overnight (thank you Marriott Pulse), we met Peter in the morning where he picked up the bikes. Fair prices. Excellent service. A fantastic experience. Thank you Peter and glad I could write this review to sing your praises. read more

Tom adjusted my bike at no cost- cool shop, great guy. I'll be back! Nice fleet of Fuji bikes available as well... read more

We've been working with Stay Classy for over 2 years and it's great to see the passion involved in this business. Build meaningful and trustworthy partnerships is so important and it translates is great results for everyone. Peter you are a rock star! Thank you for helping us deliver great experiences to our clients. read more

I have rented bikes in several different cities and Stay Classy Bikes is by far the best place I have rented from. Peter showed us a map of some great rides to do around the city tailored for what we wanted to get from our ride. Great prices, well maintained bikes and customer service that goes above and beyond! read more

We were originally looking to rent electric bikes, but our group size and heights made it difficult to rent any bikes! The last of several places I called recommended Stay Classy and lo and behold! Peter had bikes for our group! I asked him for recommendations for fun and scenic rides. He said that it was a short ride to the Coronado ferry and I was immediately sold. Biking around Coronado sounded perfect! We arrived at the shop and they were busy. Peter was on the phone and two other guys were working on bikes. Our 6 bikes were off to the side and I was pleasantly surprised that the bikes were clean and in pristine condition. I requested baskets for the ladies and they came in handy. They were great catch all's for our husband's jackets and misc stuff. Peter provided helmets, locks, map and instructions on how/when to shift gears. The ride to the ferry from the shop was easy because it was mostly downhill, which didn't immediately occur to me that I'd have to pedal uphill back to the shop. I will admit that I had to walk my bike up one of the hills...which any normal person could have done with some effort. I forgot my inhaler at the house, but crises was averted and I'm happy to say I got my steps in. This was the first time our group took this route to Coronado and it definitely won't be our last! We had a blast! read more

Peter was extremely helpful and communicative. He also educated me on my bike repair, which I absolutely loved. He offered superb customer service and he made me feel comfortable as a guest. He has earned a lifelong customer and I will definitely be back. read more

Great service, people and bikes! Forgot my helmet in the store the night before a triathlon and the owner met me after hours at night and saved the day! read more

If you are looking to rent a road bike in San Diego look no further but Stay Classy Bikes! Bike shop owner, Peter, is fantastic and super personable. Bike selection is also great and all bike components are very well maintained. We rented a carbon fiber fork bike and was so pleased with the rental. After few days of biking, I noticed a gear slipping and shared it with Peter. The next time we got the bike, the issue was resolved and it functioned the way it should. Great customer service and the owner does listen to the customers' feedback and improves upon it. Oh, the other great thing about this shop? They also deliver and pick up bike to/from you!!! So you do not have to bike all the way to the store to return the bike, but rather Stay Classy Bikes rep will come over to your house and will get the rental read more

I came here over the weekend to finally fix my bike I've had in storage since COVID started. I had got a flat and never went to get it fixed. Steven put air in it and told me my breaks were backwards. I paid $15 for him to change them the correct way but unfortunately the tire went flat overnight and had to come back the next day. Someone else was working then but the gentleman was also polite. He told me to come back in an hour. I believe I paid $17 and some change for the fix. He said I had glass and cactus on it. I'm assuming what gave me the flat. I don't know much about bikes but I do like riding them haha. Anyway just wanted to say thank you and I'll be back for any other issues that arise. read more

This will be my go to place for affordable and convenient bike rentals! Bike pickup and drop-off is free, which was awesome as they were able to bring a bike over to me across from the airport. Peter was so friendly and professional, and really helpful when I ended up with a flat tire. He was quick to respond and arrived within the hour with a new bike for me to swap with. The bike itself was okay, but it did the job for me to explore the area. Pricing is very good: $25/day plus $10 for each additional day. I am now a loyal customer of Stay Classy Bike Rentals and will always go to them for bike rentals whenever I visit San Diego. read more

I can't believe I haven't written a review for this spot! Like many people, during the pandemic I started getting into biking again and I love it. I used to pass by this spot often, but never popped in until I got more consistent biking. They are extremely helpful to what i need done and they are great at breaking down certain issues I'd experience with my bike. Always a very welcoming atmosphere and would recommend their business 100%. read more

Stay Classy has great bikes at great prices (much cheaper than an electric rideshare in other West Coast cities), and they deliver and pick up the bike for you; very helpful if you're staying in a downtown hotel. The owner also provided a map with the best routes for popular San Diego attractions and advice on how to ride safely. This business is great. I will definitely rent from them again whenever I'm in San Diego. read more

I'll never go anywhere else for bike rental with delivery. Every year I participate in a holiday bike ride, and I've used several bike rental companies. Stay Classy has, by far, provided the best service and the best bikes. Peter was on time. He double-checked each bike. He was easy to work with to schedule pickup and delivery. What more could you want? read more

Renting a bike from Stay Classy for the three days I was in town was easily the best decision of my trip. I stayed in Bankers Hill and did rent-a-scooter (expensive, forces you to be slow in Balboa Park) to get to Stay Classy, and then used my bike to get alllllll around town (Balboa Park, Hillcrest, Old Town, Ocean Beach, Little Italy, waterfront, Chicano Park). I got a flat in Balboa Park, called them to see if I should ride over to get a fix, and they can out and traded me a fresh new ride! The basket on the bike was instrumental in having a great time and the employees are super nice. When I returned the bike, I then walked myself down to the orange line trolley and got dope tacos on the way. read more

Incredible service. Great prices. Overall amazing experience. Free drop off and pick up. The quality of the bike was superb. It doesn't get better than this. Peter went above and beyond. Servicing an additional bike my friend had, repaired a flat with new inner tube for $5. Also readjusted rear brakes for no additional cost. This is a man who know his craft. And provides a superior customer service experience. Honestly wish I could become friends with the guy. Good energy. Hard worker. read more

I don't write many reviews but this was an absolutely exceptional experience. Peter at Stay Classy bikes delivered a high end Fuji endurance road bike to my hotel in Gaslamp, set up with my preferred pedals as promised, on time and with zero fuss. I was on a call in my hotel room when he delivered it and he arranged to leave it with the front desk. Moreover, it was an impossibly fair price for this service, the going rate is at least 2x. Highly recommend if you're traveling in San Diego and want to put in some miles in the saddle! read more

We love to get exercise while on vacation. And riding bikes is first on our list! While our hotel provided a recommended vendor and "discount", we did our own research and found Stay Classy! WOW. Great customer service, prices that are realistic and quality bicycles. We would highly recommend them. They are accommodating and friendly. Thank you for a wonderful experience.

I have rented from Stay Classy a number of times now, and I've been happy every time. The bikes are clean and in excellent condition. They provide a sanitized helmet, bike lock, maps, and a small emergency tool and puncture kit. They will deliver the bike to you at no extra charge; they take great pride in delivering right on time. You can also pick up a bike at their shop. No matter if they deliver or you pick-up, they'll adjust the bike to fit. They have cruisers, road bikes, and kids bikes available, with your choice of pedal types, which is a real perk. I'm a very small woman, and I really appreciate they have bikes in my size. Their prices are better than other bike rentals in the area. And on top of all this, the guys who work there are wonderfully nice and very professional. I totally recommend them. read more

I can't begin to explain the exemplary service I received recently at my first visit to Stay Classy bikes. After a long year of riding, my bike was in need of some TLC. From the moment I stepped foot in Stay Classy Bikes, I knew I would be taken care of. Their prices are on point, the service is top notch, and they really make you feel like you're a part of their little biker family. I ended up dropping off two bikes and didn't have enough space to put both in my car upon pickup. Instead of making a second trip, the owner (great guy from Brooklyn) had a buddy bring his truck to the shop and drop the bike off at my house. Customer service at its finest! They will have my business as long as I am on two wheels! read more

I was doing my first triathalon and only had a mountain bike and decided to try and rent a basic road bike to make it a bit easier. I found Stay Classy bikes and their rental rates were by far the best for what I needed and the time frame I needed it for. Super friendly and super helpful. Pick up and drop off were as easy as can be and the bike worked great for the race. I would definitely recommend. read more

Incredibly impressed with the service, equipment and fairness of this business. My friends and I flew in from a few different cities to go cycling and Peter hooked us up with high quality road bikes that felt brand new. He was flexible with pickup and delivery to us and gave us pointers on where to ride. I put about 160 miles on the bike over the course of one week and it felt great the entire time. High quality components, frames, and wheel sets and all well maintained. I highly recommend. read more

I made a call the day after I flew in and requested the Fuji 2.1 SL for the week. A gentleman delivered it to my hotel location in Hotel Circle and set me up with a helmet flat repair kit and multi tool for adjustments and pedals specific to my cleats. The bike retails $3600 Carbon frame oval wheels and Shimano Ultegra brakes and drive train. I couldn't get over the stiffness and responsiveness and it's climbing chops. 25 miles in town and up Mt Soledad down to the beaches, the grin off my face said it all. Affordable , Great service and easy rental for the week. Be thankful you have this in San Diego . read more

Very nice store managers - responsible and wouldn't rent bikes first without making sure enough were in stock (high demand). Personable, made great conversation and are definitely passionate about what they do : ) There's coffee here to wake you up before your ride as well. Thanks guys! And I'm so glad I completed that Bayshore Bikeway... phew!!! read more

My son rented a road bike from Stay Classy for our tour of San Diego The bike was great and the rental price was surprisingly low. Peter was super helpful and it made for a wonderful experience. Thanks! read more

This place is fantastic! Peter set us up with three bikes, and made sure we had everything we needed for a great day in San Diego- a map with hand drawn recommended bike routes and baskets for our bikes. We called ahead to make sure he had bikes for us, and he took our height so that he could have the bikes ready when we got there. The bikes were in great shape, and we were able to have a bike for 25$ for 24 hours. Love this shop! read more

Super grateful for these guys help with my sons bike. It was a simple fix, but they are down to earth welcoming and extremely helpful. I will be coming back for sure. Thanks guys read more

My first experience with this bike shop will not be my last. The staff went out of their way to help me with an unusual request - to install a set of SOLID tires on wheelchair rear wheels, not an easy task. I will recommend them to all my biking buddies! read more

Been going to other bike shops for years. A friend turned me on to Tommy at Stay Classy Bikes. So glad he did! Tommy is the man! Brought in 2 vintage steel race bikes that needed some TLC. Tommy is a master mechanic, assessed the issues immediately and had the bikes done within 24 hours. At a ridiculously reasonable price. Don't waste your time at other shops. You will not be disappointed with the service at Stay Classy! read more

Door to door service. Peter came out promptly after I called, and by prompt I mean within 10 minutes. He and Anthony are very personable and experienced with bikes. They do their own maintenance and were friendly and conversational. A must for someone renting a bike. Good quality bikes and very reasonable prices. This was a great experience. Peter and Anthony were very friendly. I was originally going to rent a commuter bike for a sprint triathlon this weekend since I didn't have experience on a road bike. Peter let me try out the road bike and showed me how to shift and made sure I was comfortable on it before I decided to rent it instead. We had a nice conversation during our meeting and it was nice to do business with a personable guy. read more
