One might question why a bike shop offers rentals, well that’s until you’re flying to an Ironman in Cozumel and realize there’s more to getting there, then just “getting there”. Freshbikes offers a wide range of rentals including Bike Boxes (for the plane), Zipp Race wheels, to go fast, and high performance wet suits, to keep you warm.
Freshbikes offers bike box rentals from both Tri-All-3 Sports and Biknd. The HELIUM bag from Biknd is one of the coolest bike bags around, with an internal mount for your frame and inflatable protection, this is bag not only protects your bike while in transit, but also packs down small once you arrive at your destination. With prices starting at just $100 for the week, you can rest assured that your prized possession (ok, it’s just your bike) will fly safe. And if you need help getting your bike in the box, our technicians can disassemble and box your bike for a nominal fee.
When the open water calls, Freshbikes offers the latest in wetsuits rentals. Our rental inventory includes wetsuits from Sailfish and feature the performance minded, Sailfish Vibrant and the legendary Sailfish One. With complete size runs for both men and women you can be sure you’ll have the best fit in a wetsuit.
Whether you’re trying to set a personal best in an Omnium TT, save energy during the 112 mile bike of an Ironman or outsprint the competition at the Reston Town Center Crit, a weekly rental of a set of Zipp Carbon wheels may be the perfect weapon. Featuring the all-around Zipp 404 and the ultrafast Zipp 808 these wheels are just the secret advantage for that weekend race or time trial. And remember folks, these wheels are not just for the pro rider, as recreational riders will benefit even more since there is more time to benefit from the aerodynamics.
Zipp wheel rentals start at $140 for a one week rental, and include Michelin Pro Race 3 tires. In addition, our certified technicians will swap your cassette and swap out your brake pads for the carbon fiber braking surface at no additional charge.
All of our weekly rentals begin on Wednesday (and to be returned on the following Tuesday), so there’s enough time to try out that cool set of wheels or wetsuit before the weekend race. Our rentals are always in high demand, so please give us a call or stop by to reserve your equipment as early as possible.
