After taking my bike in and being told I am getting nice new grips and a tune up and my bike will be like new. It's the farthest thing form the truth. I had a professional shop do the work for 35% less. They never knew what I was ripped off for. These people want a check for a reason. I am so mad

They saw me coming. Such a ripoff. Over charges and didn't know what they were doing. My bike still screeched and just as bad as It was when I went in. This place rents bike and they will throw a wrench at it if you are stick. Beware

The best bike shop not only in longboat key area but sarasota/manatee County Charlie and Lisa are great

I stopped into Backyard Bike Shop with some friends. I asked the mechanic if he could fix grinding gears on my bike. He was obviously very busy but stopped what he was doing and made a quick adjustment that solved the problem. I received great customer service and would highly recommend this bike shop for rentals or repairs.

Rented a multispeed for a week. Quick and pleasant process, bike in excellent condition. The bike was sensibly equipped for a casual rider using it for fun and for errands: basket, lock, bell, and helmet. I recommend Backyard Bikes highly!

We’ve been renting bikes from Backyard since 2017, a few times a year for a week each time. Very reasonably priced, decent selection to choose from and easy pick up and drop off. Just remember they only accept cash or checks, no cards. They also include a lock, basket and helmet if you choose.

As a business owner I can fully appreciate how well organised their shop and they are working together. The workmanship and cost Work hand-in-hand. Especially on an island of Longboat Key I would expect the prices to be up besides 30% more than what they charge. Very reasonable and Looking forward to Break something else on my bike so I can go and see them. The 2 of them work together Perfectly and the review conceived the respect between the 2 of them. You won't be disappointed And they keep their rental bikes in tip top shape. Think you, Scott Hammond.

Priced reasonably. Service was lacking the day we rented two bikes for kids. A few bikes had flat tires, instead of airing them up, were told to select another. They refused to remove training wheels from a small bike when they could not find another one the size we needed. Finally found a small one tucked back in the corner. It was a challenge to do business that morning. They must have been having an off day.

We recently rented two bikes from Charlie at the Backyard Bike Shop. (Longboat Key) Included combination lock and removable handlebar basket (super practical) for each bike. Excellent value and very friendly and knowledgeable staff. Great area to cycle and explore. I highly recommend Backyard Bike Shops if you're in Longboat Key.

I wouldn't recommend going to backyard bike shop for the following reasons. Number one, my back tire was slightly flat and so I decided to stop in just to have a little bit of air pumped in it he hooked my bike up to a gigantic air compressor and over-inflated it and blew up the tire. Then he continually insisted that it wasn't his fault in there must have been a hole, when it was just missing a little bit of air and I had been riding it for days. Then he gave me a loaner bike to use while he fixed the flat which was a terrible rental bike. The chain popped off every time I rode it and I was forced to get my hands greasy and disgusting to get the chain back on just to get where I needed to go. And then he charged me over $45 just for a new tube and tire when at Walmart it comes to about $12. then I called to see if I could come get my bike and they told me that the gentleman who loaned me the bike and was fixing my tire wasn't around and that he would be back the next day and then I explained that I couldn't come the next day but I could come the day after. then the day that I was on my way to go bring the spare bike back and get my bike a truck with backyard bike Shop logo comes barreling down my road and a woman jumps out and asks are you actually bringing my bike back today?! When i had already let them know today was the day I'm bringing the rental back. I got my bike back, and i was riding it for about five minutes and the tire goes completely flat. I was on a sidewalk on longboat key for five minutes (i doubt i popped it in that terrain for that amount of time) i call backyard bike to tell them what was going on and they become irate with me, accusing me of putting the blame on them for the new tire going flat, when i was simply explaining the situation. Then they were mean, belittling, and rude, but agreed to check out the bike under the condition that i never contact them ever again. This isn't the way to do business. They came hunting me down, were extremely rude, extremely over priced, and didn't display proper customer service at all. I wouldn't recommend you do business with them.
