Great way to see Central Park by Bike - Great way to get around and see Central Park with the kids. Had opportunities to stop and take in the sites and enjoyed a picnic. Staff were friendly and helpful, they provided advice and recommendations. The bikes were a little old and worn but did the job.

Disappointing - The bikes rented from the Rentbike.nyc agency at 117 58th Street are far from being new and in good condition. The adjustment of the saddle by the person handing over the equipment is not at all suitable, much too low, we do it ourselves. Even more so, as we pass in front of the agency of the same rental company located at the very entrance to Central Park (near the Plaza hotel) and there, the bikes are much more recent and therefore in better condition.

Terrible customer service but good ride in the park - We had booked this had everything we needed (tickets and address) to get our bikes. Went to the bike shop listed on the address and was told we were at the wrong place. They were rude and very unhelpful. They told us we needed to go to another location a block away. When we got there the process was overly complicated to get our bikes. Employees did not help with helmets or setting the bikes up for us. No instruction before we left. The actual ride in Central Park was great but the process to get there was terrible. Would not recommend this.

We feel scammed - We booked for a nice price via Viator, being around 60 dollar voor 4 bikes for 5 hours. Really a bargain. But by the cashier we were more or less forced to pay the full price even after doubting about the price she entered in her system. They said that it would be arranged after paying. The manager apologized by saying that the cashier was new. The end of the story, for now I paid around 200 dollar and used the bikes only for 1,5 hours due to the quality of the bikes. Shift gears not working properly. Still waiting for a refund that they promised. Stay away or make sure the payment is done correctly for you.

JUST TAKE THE CITI BIKES!!!! - Kindly note: the review/one star is purely for this bike centre, NOT Viator. Thanks Viator team for processing my refund application.
Went to central park to get our bikes at the first store we see (near the main roads), but they told us that there were multiple outlets and we had to walk further after Starbucks to get our bikes from another outlet - this was our fault for not seeing where the pick up was
Kept walking till we saw the second outlet. We were greeted by this middle aged man who was all cheery but told us that it was not this outlet to get the bikes and to keep walking further down to get the bike...
Fine...we checked the fine print again and we walked to the 117 outlet. The third outlet. At this point we wasted 30 mins already....at the third outlet we showed the young boy our booking and he was clueless...he said he will call his boss...
Guess what?! The boss was the middle aged man we saw at the second outlet. Wow?! Like he could have just helped us there but we waited for him to walk to the third outlet...seriously?!
This dude then said his system slow. Can't find ticket. He had to call a couple of people...this was more than 45 mins of waiting at this point and he asked for some ID...which he say he has to keep it for security. Or we had to pay $100 deposit.
At this point my friends and I were extremely frustrated. We decided to request for refund on the spot. And when we told the guy we don't want. He was adamant in keeping my friend's ID but we managed to take the ID back into our hands and walked out.
Scary experience as the middle aged man looked unhappy when we left so we walked faster.
Unpleasant experience
