The green catches your eye from the entrance of Defiance & how can't you not love this shade!! The options once inside for rentals are endless and inclusive for everyone and anyone - the newest addition is the electric bikes! We went with a manual set of bikes and rode the trail directly behind all the way to Augusta (7 miles ish each way) I love the convenience of the trail being directly behind the shop & the variety of parking options. Also close to multiple places to grab a bite to eat after! Have been going to this shop for the last 10 years when we are in need of a rental bike! The new owners were friendly & helpful with the quick and efficient onboarding process of getting on the trail! Don't hesitate to rent here - affordable for a fun family / friend day on the trail!

John was friendly, he explained the operation of the bikes perfectly, easy to understand. The bikes were in excellent condition. I've biked the Katy many times and this was one of my best rides. The trail near Defiance is a beautiful part of the trail, lots of scenic views of the river. Many wineries, breweries and eating places nearby is a plus. We came back a little late on our 2 hour rental but he didn't gouge us for more. Highly recommend renting bikes here if you are looking for a great Katy Trail experience.

I called Trailhead Bicycles and asked about service packages, service appointments etc. The young gentleman I spoke to was Ian (sp), he was extremely helpful over the phone explaining the service procedures and timeframe for service completions available. We decided after talking to Ian to drop our bikes off that day for an evaluation. We expected to leave our bikes and pick-up two weeks later. Upon arrival, Ian met us and did a quick review of our bikes, assessed my gear malfunction, gave us price quotes etc. Due to the well kept condition of our bikes, Ian decided he could service our bikes right then. We were so surprised, not at all what we expected! Long story, Ian performed a thorough review and service of our bikes and had us out of there within an hour - not two weeks as expected! Ian provided us peace of mind about the condition and operation of our bikes, he assured us our bikes are in great condition and safe for us to hit the trails! We received excellent service from the helpful, kind and courteous staff at this location - highly recommend. We will definitely take our bikes back to Trailhead Bicycles for regular maintenance and service. 5 Stars *****

Excellent, work Alec. We are absolutely satisfied with the work done, and look forward to an ongoing mutually beneficial relationship. This business is just the right size, professional enough, with the required equipment/technology/skill to handle modern bikes, but small enough to call you by name and care about what they are doing for you. I have been riding for years, and owned a few different bicycles. Each year the bikes have gotten a bit better, and the needs for a competent professional to help me take care of them has grown as well. Very comfortable with trusting this business with our needs. I had taken the bikes apart to ship them on our move from MD, and put them back together. They were okay, but just a bit wonky. Alec returned them to like new condition, everything is smooth. He even fixed my wife's chain rub problem that we have dealt with since we bought it, and three different shops back in Maryland.

While they basically only have hybrid bikes (no road bikes), the park is small enough (only about 7 miles around) that you really only need a hybrid bike to see it.

Pricing is competitive ($10 an hour, with discounts for renting all day), and the checkout process is quick and easy.
