Where to rent a bike in London
Quick answer
7 shops hire bikes to visitors in London. Prices and hours below are dated. Check the shop before you go.
- A short hop across town: bike share. See the systems below for how a visitor pays.
- A day out, an e-bike or a child: a rental shop. The cards say what each one hires.
- A flat tyre or a loose chain: a bike shop. Some repair while you wait; call first.
On the map
Tap a pin for what it offers. Tap a card below to find it on the map.
Bike share has no single spot, so no pin: Santander Cycles is in the list below.
In the list without a pin, as we don’t have the exact spot: Brompton Bike Hire (station lockers) and Parkcycle (Richmond Park).
