Vancouver Bike Share and Bike Rentals

While negotiating downtown Vancouver on a bike may not be for everyone, there are miles of dedicated bike lanes and bike paths to enjoy. Ideal uses for a mobi bike include a leisurely ride around the Stanley Park Seawall or around False Creek. Both options offer stunning views. Renting a bike to explore Stanley Park has been a popular activity with Vancouver visitors for decades and many private bike rental outlets are located a short distance to the park entrance. Some even offer guided bike tours. The mobi bike share program provides visitors another option and there are several docking stations convenient to the park entrance.

Mobi offers several short-term pricing options suitable for visitors.

Short-Term Payment Options

The best option for your needs will depend on how you are going to be using the bike. If you expect to make a minimum of 3 short trips totaling 80 minutes or more on a classic bike, the day pass would make sense, but in most other cases you are probably better off sticking with the Pay per Ride opton.

If you're visiting Vancouver for three days or more and plan to get around mostly by bike you should consider the 30-day pass as the price is about the same as two one day passes.

Consider other Bike Rental Companies

You should definitely consider using one of the other private bike rental shops, especially if you are riding around Stanley Park. Using the Pay per Ride pricing a leisurely 1.5 hour ride around the Stanley Park seawall on a mobi bike costs $23.50. A short distance from the park entrance, Spokes Bicycle Rentals charges $8.57 for one hour including a helmet and bike lock and Yes Cycle Adventures charges $9.90 for one hour. The private bike rental companies also offer a wider range of bikes, including tandem bikes.

Whichever option you end up choosing, the introduction of mobi bikes has led to lower rental rates as private shops endeavour to remain competitive.

Mobi bikes do offer good value if you'd like to have frequent intermittent access to a bike for an entire day or several days.

If you need to stop where there's no docking station, each mobi bike is equipped with a lock, but keep in mind you are responsible if something does happen to the bike. Each bike is also equipped with a helmet, so you don't have to worry about bringing your own. While many riders elect not to wear their helmet, BC law requires it, so you could put yourself at risk of a ticket. The greater risk is getting hurt, so we recommend wearing the provided helmet.
