If you want to jumpstart all your Maui adventures, jet on over to Krank Cycles for the gear you need. With a trip to this popular Makawao bike shop, you can get rental bikes of all kinds, including ebikes. They have the best brands in the business, like Giant, Rocky Mountain, Orbea, Ibis, Diamondback, and Transition. On top of that, the team always goes above and beyond to keep every last bicycle in pristine condition for your pure enjoyment.
To get a bike rental on your trip to Maui, you can fill out their online form, give them a call, or just stop by. You’ll need to let them know what type of bikes you want, plus your preferred rental dates. You can even rent multiple bikes, so your whole group can ride together. If you’re not sure what to get, just let them know where you intend to ride.
The team will use that info plus your height, weight, and other data to find the perfect bicycle for each person. You can then take the bike out for a test run to make sure that it’s the right size. During that run, you’ll need to ride up and down the road several times with seat adjustments in between.
The rental period of all bicycles is 10 am to 4:30 pm. Want to head out early? Ask for courtesy pick up at 4:30 pm the night before. You will need to make sure to bring the bike back at 4:30 pm the next day, however. If you want to ride the bikes for multiple days in a row, ask about their extended rental terms.
More often than not, it’s best to simply return the bikes in the evening, and then come back the next day for a new rental. This gives the team time to look over the bikes and complete any necessary repairs before you go out again.
Every bike rental comes with flat pedals, a helmet, a repair kit, and a detailed map. Also available in limited quantities are clipless pedals, protective armor, and backpacks. You can add a bike rack rental to your order as well if you want to transport your bicycles on your rental car. They do not allow you to put the bike racks on shuttles, tour buses, and the like, however.
Their most popular rentals are:
Giant Lafree eBike
Available in small, medium, and large, the Giant Lafree eBike makes it easy to tool around town at your leisure. The upright riding position promises to keep you comfortable, too, while the app provides navigation, fitness facts, and more.
Ibis Ripmo AF
The Ibis Ripmo AF serves as the perfect bike for the challenging trails across Maui’s tropical landscape. You can get yours in medium, large, or extra-large, although they’re all ultra-light due to the aluminum frame. The knobby tires provide excellent grip, while the short crank greatly reduces fatigue.
BMC Roadmachine One AXS
If you want to ride around town all day long, treat yourself to the BMC Roadmachine One AXS rental. Available in medium and large, this road bike has a balanced feel that lets you cruise around town in comfort.
If you want to ride in style, head over to the apparel section to outfit yourself and your crew. They have attractive road jerseys, hats, and more available for men, women, and kids. You can also buy backpacks, water bottles, and tons of other gear, although their selection changes often.
