    I rented an e-bike from Radical Adventures and the process from start to finish was seamless and…read morestress-free. I had never ridden an e-bike before and it was so much fun to ride! It was sleek, modern, and incredibly powerful, making hills and long distances a breeze. I was able to explore so much of the surrounding area without feeling fatigued or overwhelmed, thanks to the ease and comfort of the bike. The store owner was incredibly friendly and knowledgeable and they have a huge selection of different styles of ebikes to choose from. I will definitely return here again!

    Visited this place in October with a coworker we both bought Segway scooters for our commute to…read morework. My coworker took his right on the spot. Mine wasn't ready. I was told to come back tomorrow. I tried calling the next day, but nobody answered the phone so I showed up they didn't remember me. I told him I had purchased a scooter yesterday with my coworker, and then they went to look for it and they said it still wasn't ready and they needed to charge it . I came back the following day called again. No answer showed up didn't know who I was again reminded him an went to get my scooter ready for me to take one problem, though there was no charger with the brand new scooter. He could not find it. So he gave me a charger from behind the counter fast forward to today, May 5, 2026. I tried calling again no answer so I drove in. Doors were locked. Lights are on went to the front and back entrance. No sign of anyone one last check I see the guy who sold me the scooter in the window. I motion to him to come over. He comes over. he lets me in. I tell him about my scooter, he tells me to bring it in. I told him the back brake is no longer working, and my rear tire was making a grinding noise. He told me I could leave it to fill out my information before leaving. I asked him when he thought somebody would be able to take a look at it and he told me about a month. He stated the technician wasn't in today and that they had a backlog of scooters that needed to be repaired, which he pointed to in the corner and then told me there was multiple down in the basement of the same model. I told him that wasn't an option for me to wait over a month and that the scooter is still under warranty for another five months he tried to refer me to a scooter shop in Cambridge, which I live nowhere near and not paying for something that was under warranty. I then asked him what to do and he told me to call Segway the scooter company. And then again referred me to the scooter shop in Cambridge, which I had to reiterate that was not an option and I am not paying for something that is still under warranty. I asked him for Segway's number which he told me he did not have and to "Google it". My only dealings with this place twice have not been good and not the best customer service to say the least. Scooters were $1100 with tax and are under warranty for another five months and they are telling me I have to wait over a month to even get it looked at. Unacceptable!

    I've been in search of a back rack for my bike so that I can carry stuff. Because my bike is…read morex-small, and has disc brakes, it's tricky, which has stopped me from just buying something on Amazon. Believe me, I've looked! But now it's summer and I had the day off and so I finally decided to get something done. I did my research, including looking at the Urban Cycles website and calling ahead to make sure the items were in stock. The guy on the phone said they could install the items for $20, but that it was essentially walk-in for that kind of service. (They make appointments for tune-ups and such.) He said it could be two hours or it could be a day. Maybe even overnight. Because I was riding there, I was wondering how I would get home without my bike for a day. Walk? Take the T? I feel naked without my wheels!. Regardless, I told the guy I'd be right there. He said, c'mon in!! When I got there, two guys both helped me through the process of figuring out what I'd need for the installation. Their prices are clearly labelled (and by-the-way lower than Amazon). They said take a walk and come back in an hour. I walked over to Hanover Street in the North End -- very close! -- and had an Italian lemon icee. By the time I got back, my bike was ready. The back rack with basket is amazing. It will change my life. I already stopped for groceries on the way home! The guys at Urban Cycles are fast, efficient, professional. The store itself is full of great stuff and there's more behind the scenes. It's a biker's dream. I *bike* Boston!

    My review is not about the quality of their service (which I'm reading is not very good) my review…read moreis about the way the employees (most likely the owner) drives. Today in Old Saybrook, CT the company truck blew (completely blew, not a little) a stop sign and proceeded to pull out right in front of me and I had to aggressively break to avoid hitting him. Of course a few hundred feet up the road the uncurious driver had to wait for a red light. Never did he attempt the courteous hand wave "I'm sorry" - simply didn't care. So I called the office in Boston and was met with "this has nothing to do with me" (exact quote) attitude from an employee. Will I ever buy anything from them? No and never would have given I'm over 100 miles away but if you're going to be driving around with your name all over your truck (which was full of dents - go figure) you might consider being courteous and follow basic traffic laws designed to keep you and others safe. Stop signs are not "it would be nice but if you're a bike shop in Boston you don't need to stop" - they are there to protect you, other drivers, and pedestrians... OR people riding a bike? If it was the owner, Andrew, I suggest he do better. Also, he should read his reviews as it's not easy to earn a 3.6 average review - you have to be either really bad or a jerk - so congrats on that.

    The bikes are fun, but we had to go to five locations to find an empty bay to which we could return…read moreit. The app tells you which locations have empty bays, but not accurately. Frustrating!

    I've rented bikes all over the place, and this one has a lot of room for improvement…read more With Hubway, you pay for a daylong membership @ $6 for the day. Then, you get all the 30 minute or less rides you can handle. If you ride for longer than 30 min, you get charged up the wazoo, so be careful! I was disappointed that there wasn't an app for the bikes, like many other civic bike rental companies have. An app that shows you how long you have until your time runs out, where the next kiosk to return the bikes is at, and how many bikes are available would be nice. Since there's such a penalty for riding for more than 30 minutes, it'd be nice to know when you're getting close. I did a total of three rides. On each ride, each bike was messed up. Usually it was the derailleur for the gears, making it difficult to shift. On another bike, the brakes were stuck in the 'on' position, making it difficult to ride. They could use more maintenance on these bikes. But I still had fun, there are 3rd party apps that are unofficial Hubway apps that tell you where the next place to return the bike is. However, there needs to be a LOT more places to rent/return bikes before this becomes a reliable way to get around the city. Why aren't there more hubs in places where they need them?!

    This was so much more fun than I anticipated!…read more Sabrina (hostess/art teacher/lovely woman) led us through a fun filled 2 hours of my first ever nude sketching session! She was upbeat, informative, respectful to both the sketchers (us) and the models. Made sure there were no photography during class unless it's through them to make the models comfortable. (takes guts to be nude in front of a bunch of people drinking and looking at you!) She brought out the artistic sides of everyone in the room, guided us through different sketching exercises (1-3-5 minute sketch sessions) so we're busy drawing instead of JUDGING what we were drawing. such helpful tips! I think we were all VERY impressed with our own artworks! I really thought I'd be drawing a little more than stick figures before coming here. I had a blast and this would make any gathering unique, fun and explorative! I had an amazing time!

    I would recommend The Artful Bachelorette to anyone looking for a fun activity to do (whether…read morecelebrating or not!). Like our host said, they do it all from engagement celebrations to happy divorce parties! All skill levels are welcome, and your host will walk you through a variety of different exercises at different speeds. Our model was graceful, poised, and cool as a cucumber. I would love to do this again someday with a group of friends for a girls night! (P.S. I would love to see photos from the Boston event if the host has them!)
