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.

Very, Very Disappointing Experience:…read more -1/17/21 rented 3 bikes from B-cycle Houston. -APP did not work on any of our three phones otherwise, we would have joined as "members". I was able to get to the section on pricing but could go no further. I do remember monthly membership is $13.00 (unlimited trips) and that the yearly membership is $79 (unlimited trips). -Rented 3 bikes around 1 pm. (1/17/21), returned them the next day around 10 am. (1/18/21). -On 1/18/21 checked my acct. and there were 3 charges for $3.24. -Checked my acct several days later and noticed a $278.64 and $150.00 charge from Houston Bike Share (713-865-3622). -It was the weekend but I called and left a message that I was concerned about the charges. Business hours are Monday through Friday and could not reach anyone. -Monday the 25th I called again and spoke to a young lady (cannot remember her name, but she did say she had gotten my message). -I asked her why I was charged those amounts ($278.64), she responded that I had the bikes for a very long time and that was the charge and that the bikes are only for short time (30 minutes) usage. -I asked her about the $150 charge and she told me it was because one of the bikes was stolen. I explained that we returned all 3 bikes and that I was just visiting Houston for the weekend and lived in Florida. -After explaining that I didn't steal one of their bikes, the pricing is very confusing, the APP didn't work, the displays at the kiosks were so scratched up that it was difficult to even see what was required to type in, the first two kiosks did not have dock numbers on them and we had to go to 3 different kiosks to rent the bikes because the first 2 didn't work (other people trying to rent bikes at these kiosks were having difficulties as well), she told me that she would speak to her supervisor. -When she returned she said that she didn't understand why I was confused about the pricing: "it is displayed on the kiosks and bikes" (the signage on all three of the kiosks was unintelligible or not visible), "you could have used the APP" (I explained again, that the APP did not work on any of our phones), "you could have called" (bikes were rented on a Sunday, business hours are M-F), or "you could have checked the website" (by the time we made it to the third kiosk, we were just happy that we were able to find a kiosk that worked by this time). -After listening to her give me all the options I could have pursued had I been thinking properly, I again disputed the charges. She told me that the charges are what they are and that I had signed the "company waiver" (?) and I was responsible for those charges. -I responded, "so basically there is nothing that can be done and, is it not possible for her to consider all a misunderstanding?" Her response was, "that's correct, nothing can be done and no flexibility". -I asked her again about the "stolen bike" charge and she said that the bike was never returned (which is incorrect, all 3 bikes were returned to the kiosk adjacent to the Common Bond in Montrose) so I would be charged for that as well. I told her that we returned all three bikes to the same kiosk and made sure that they were all locked in. -She told me that 1 of the bikes was not showing up in the system as returned so I was responsible for that charge as well. So, all in charge was $428.64 for three bikes for about 21-hours. If the APP had been working, we would have joined as members and paid $39 total. I take responsibility for not understanding the charges but, we returned all three bikes. I am a teacher, my brother is a commercial real estate developer and my sister-in-law is a very successful business owner. In no reasonable scenario would we have ever stolen one of the bikes...doesn't make any sense at all. As a visitor to Houston, I would have hoped that B-cycle would have been more understanding. I feel like I have been taken advantage of and this leaves a very bad taste in my mouth for a visit to your city that was otherwise delightful.

EaDo Bike Co has become my local bike shop for any repairs or tuneups that my bike needs. All of…read morethe staff have always been friendly and it has never been too busy on my visits here. 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.

Suzy was so helpful assisting me in getting my bike out of the car. I even learned how to take a front tire off thank you for that! $11 for parts and $10 for labor to get a tube replaced in my bike which is pretty standard so fair pricing. A nice gentleman with a face tattoo serviced my bike. He had it done and ready to go by the time I returned. So it was such a smooth process. Even while leaving I had another worker open the door and offer to assist me putting my bike back in the car. I just loved the overall warm, kind, and helpful customer service here. I felt right at home.

I have heard about B Cycle and occasionally seen the bike racks in the downtown area but never had…read morea reason to use them. This past weekend I found a reason. I rented a bike from a stand next to City Hall to ride around the Buffalo Bayou area and some parts of downtown. This was such an easy process. You go up to the kiosk and touch the screen to wake the machine up. You purchase a 24 hour pass for $5 using a credit card. Then your first 60 minutes of rental is free. You can extend the free use of the bike by checking it back in to ANY kiosk before your original 60 minute period ends and then immediately checking it back out for a new 60 minute period. In other words by paying $5 for the 24 hour pass that can be your only cost to rent a bike. If you go over your 60 minute period they charge you $2 for every extra 30 minutes. Very affordable! The bikes come with a basket on the front to stow gear. They have 3 speeds and have an adjustable seat and attached bike lock. I found the seat to be adequate in comfort. The bike lock is very handy when you stop somewhere and want to secure your bike like I did when I had lunch. The brakes and gear shifts worked well also. On the bike is listed Houston B Cycles' customer service number to call if you have any questions or maintenance issues. I recommend downloading the B Cycle app on your smartphone. The app does many things to help with your rental. Primarily, it gives you the locations of every bike rack kiosk in your city as B Cycle is located in several cities in the US. Not only does it show you where every kiosk is located, it also shows you in real time how many bikes are available at that kiosk and also how many empty stalls are open for you to return your bike to. Remember you don't have to return your bike to the kiosk you rented it from BUT you have to return your bike to a kiosk that has an empty stall. That's where the app can really be helpful. Usually every kiosk will have an empty stall for you to return your bike. I give B Cycle 5 stars because it is so easy to use and so affordable. Whether you use it for pleasure or your personal transportation needs its convenience cannot be overstated.

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.
