Gravity Nelson’s Rental and Demo Bike Philosophy is simple: We only want to rent out bikes that we would personally want to ride, and we want you to love riding our rentals so much that you will leave raving about how the rental was better than your own bike and be inspired to buy a bike from one of the brands we work with. If you are inspired to buy a bike from us after you ride one of our rentals, then we will discount you the rental price off the cost of the bike you buy… so the rental becomes a demo!. We pride ourselves on our rental fleet being the highest quality mountain bike rentals available in Nelson with bikes from Santa Cruz, Transition, Evil and Mondraker, the same great brands we sell!
We have both “acoustic” and ebike models in different sizes and amounts of suspension travel with brakes and suspension set up to your preference, characteristics and riding style.
All our bikes are not only specifically set up for Nelson’s great trails with appropriate tires, tubeless fluid, and cushcore in the rear, but they are also “Gorge Ready”, so if your own bike isn’t quite up to smashing out a day at the Wairoa Gorge, contact us and beat up one of our bikes instead!
We also include a free helmet and knee protection on request, plus can provide pump, tools and spare inner tube if you need it.
Gravity Nelson’s rental bikes are also available for multi-day hire with significant discounts from one-day rental rates, so you can tackle the Old Ghost Road or Heaphy track with confidence, or just tick your way through the 400+ kms of single-track which is within 45 minutes drive of the centre of Nelson.
