Trail was excellent

Gerard_D, Aug 2024

Peddle fell off 5 miles down cycle path. There was no follow up or compensation from company. Bike trail was great.

Thank you for sharing your feedback with us. We’re truly sorry to hear that the pedal came off during your ride — that’s absolutely not the experience we want anyone to have during their Chicago Bike Rental. While we’re glad you were still able to enjoy the beautiful Chicago Lakefront Trail, we completely understand how frustrating mechanical issues can be, especially when you’re several miles into your ride. Every Bicycle in our fleet is routinely inspected, but occasionally something unexpected can happen — and when it does, we want the opportunity to make it right. Bobby’s Bike Hike believes strongly in our four core tenets of travel, community, health, and service, and follow-up care is an important part of that commitment. We would truly appreciate the chance to connect with you directly to review what happened and discuss an appropriate resolution. Our goal is always to provide the best Bike Rentals in Chicago and reliable Chicago Bike Hire experiences so guests can confidently Explore Chicago by Bike without interruption. We hope you’ll consider reaching out to us so we can turn this experience around for you. 🚲

Giornata memorabile in giro in biciclette a Chicago !!!

Manda_B, Aug 2024

Consiglio vivamente di fare l’esperienza in bici lungo la pista ciclabile del lago. Un metodo per vedere tanto in poco tempo. Abbiamo sfruttato appieno la giornata, grazie alle bici. I nostri figli 14 e 12 anni felicissimi. Visitato tutti i parchi lungo il lago senza grossi sforzi.
