Bike Rentals & Festival Transport

Practical Info.

Bike hire & transport

Bike Hire

If you don’t have an e-bike and need to hire one for the event we recommend you get onto this as soon as you’ve booked your trail ride as demand for rental e-bikes will be high. You can book with one of the following local companies:

Going Blue – These guys have made it easy for riders to book a bike online. Just head to their website and click on ‘Ebike and Pushbike Hire‘. Then choose ‘Premium 2022 Ebike Hire‘. The calendar immediately shows the Cyclorama dates so choose the date you’re riding and take it from there. Any questions? Please call the Going Blue team or email goingbluequeenstown@gmail.com with Cyclorama E-Bike Hire in the subject line.

Better by Bike (situated right on Butler’s Green by the Festival Village) – to book email info@betterbybike.co.nz with Cyclorama E-Bike Hire in the subject line.

If you’re planning to test your mettle on the Coronet Caper and need an e-MTB please get in touch with Bikeaholic who have a fleet fit for purpose. 

Riding to the Sky? Your guide, Shay, has dual suspension e-bikes to hire and you can lock your rental in when you book your ticket.

All e-bike rentals are located at the Festival Village for you to collect and return after your ride.

When you book your e-bike mention the rides you’re booking and your height to ensure you get the best bike. If you’re renting a bike for Night Rider, which returns between 11:00pm – midnight, Better by Bike are your best bet as they are providing late night transport and bike return.

Please make sure you have collected your e-bike 30 minutes before your ride starts to allow time for your ride briefing.

Bike & Battery Transportation 

As you may be aware, there are particular restrictions surrounding travelling with your e-bike battery, for example you can’t fly with them. You can use a trucking freight company, although your bike must be boxed and the battery attached to your bike, not kept separately.

You must also attach a sticker to the outside of the box UN3090 or UN3091 which can be found online.
