Review from mike f.

We had the best experience with Atlantic Cycles. Arrived on a spring-break week. Great selection of bikes, reasonable prices. Despite being busy, the guy running the shop spent a great deal of time with us, making sure my daughter got a bike that fit her and answering my questions about bike routes through town. I was concerned we might not get back in time (they close at 5 in the off season), and he assured me it wasn't a problem, he'd stay open until we got back. Turned out, we got back at 4, so that wasn't a problem. But then, a near-disaster-- I couldn't find my keys. He offered to let us to give us back the bikes, at no extra charge, to retrace our route to find the keys, and sad he would keep the shop open until we got back. Luckily, we found the keys locked in our car. But, what great service -- we will be back. And we happily recommend this place to all

THIS is THE place to go in rehoboth if you ever wanted to rent a bike.
We stopped by at 4pm, the guy took down my bf's name and number. He came back right away with a bike that perfectly fit me(5'4), and my bf(6'3),
For two cruisers, we only paid $20. We had the bike for 3 hours.
The service was super fast. No credit card/picture ID needed. I've never been happier with any service than this.
Will definitely come back here!! -

Newer and very well kept after bikes for rent, and really friendly service as well. As you'd hope, the guy here knows a lot about the area from a bike rider's perspective. He's a good resource, so ask if you're not familiar with the area!
Never had a problem here, and neither have any of the dozens of people I send here from the hotel I work in. -

Grade A service. Bikes are newer and well maintained. Very knowledgeable about the terrain...Recommended a trail route that took us from Rehoboth to Lewes...beautiful...have done it 5 times since we rented from him two years ago. I refer many friends to him and whenever we have visitors, we take them on a bike tour using bikes we rent from them. As for the one reviewer who commented about his experience, giving it ONE STAR...I doubt it went down ENTIRELY like you described...he probably was warning you that you cannot ride your bikes on the beach, thats it and you took it as a personal attack. Definitely use this store if you need to rent bikes...PRICES ARE GREAT, TOO.

Rented a limo bike from here the other day. The bikes seemed to all be in very good shape. The guy working was very friendly as was his dog who was just chilling out in the front. I highly recommend Atlantic Cycles.

We rented bikes for a day. Atlantic gave us maps and laid out the main trails in the area and their mileages. He strongly suggested helmets but we turned down the offer but looking back, we should have taken them. I think we paid 16 each for the day. We rented after labor day so this option was not the closest rental to our hotel however they had the latest opening hours to return the bikes. Something to pay attention to where you choose to rent!

The guys were nice enough when we rented a bike for my daughter. Unfortunately, while riding back from the beach the gears broke and she went sailing into a bench. Luckily she was just bruised. When we brought it back they were non plussed. Only took off one day of rental. I'm looking elsewhere next time when we are at Rehobeth.

I rented a bike (hybrid) from Atlantic Cycles in Rehoboth last week for four days. I couldn't have been happier with the bike or the service. Frank, the owner, was really helpful.

Stopped in to rent a couple mountain bikes. Wanted to know their opinion on riding on the beach at the state park south of Dewey. Owner comes around the corner, without having seen or spoken to us before, and says, without even asking us where we were going to ride, "We're not going to rent to you if you're going to ride on the beach." Now, I've rented bikes in South and North Carolina where it's perfectly normal to ride on the beach, so I'm unfamiliar with the concept of "no riding on the beach". It would have been helpful for him to ask us if we'd been here before and politely tell us that riding on the beach (only within Rehoboth Beach borders, mind you) isn't allowed. As soon as he said that, I left. I do not want to spend my money at a place where the owner is reactionary and just plain rude.

I brought in a group of about seven people just before closing on a busy summer evening in August 2009. The owner of the shop -- I'm sorry I don't remember his name -- could not have been more accomodating, despite the fact that his summer help hadn't bothered to show up for work that day. In an orderly fashion he fitted us for bikes, helmets, and individual payment. We each got great bikes (hybrids all around, though they also had enticing road bikes) plus helmets, locks, and lights for just $70 for the whole week. It really made our trip to have such great transit to the beach. The ride to both the Rehoboth and Dewey shores was only about 20 minutes from our house just past the main Rehoboth Ave drag. We returned the bikes equally as quickly and hassle-free. Forget those lame beach cruisers -- if you're going to do any kind of biking on the Delaware shore, and there's plenty with the state park and neighboring beaches and abundant tennis courts, stick with Atlantic Cycles.
