How do I book a bike rental at Métier?

What are the pickup and return hours for rental bikes?
Rental bikes can be picked up and returned anytime during our standard business hours. You will be prompted to select specific pickup and drop-off times during the booking process. Please note that our service department is closed on Mondays, so bikes cannot be returned on that day.

Do you rent cycling helmets and shoes?

What happens if the rental bike is damaged during my rental booking?
The renter assumes full financial responsibility for any damage that occurs during the rental period. Upon return, our professional service department will assess the bike, and the renter will be billed for the necessary parts and labor to restore the bike to its original condition.
Am I allowed to travel with the rental bike?
Yes, you may travel with our rental bikes; however, you are solely responsible for the bike's safety and condition until it is returned to our Seattle location. We recommend using a professional bike rack or transport case if you plan to leave the city.
