FAQ

Where is Kona Bicycle?

We are located at 766 Valencia Street in the Mission district. If you're visiting us from out of town, take BART to the 16th street station. Locals: you can also reach us via MUNI bus lines #33, 14, and 22 as well as the 16th & Mission BART station.

How can I extend the 24 hrs rental period?

Just keep cycling! You pay your rent on return, so you can keep the bike until you are done with it, unless you have decided to extend for longer than a week. By the way: longterm renters get a better rate.

Do you give a reduction on large groups or for longterm rentals?

Yes we do. Groups off 10 persons get a 10% reduction when they pay all together. For longer periods than 2 weeks we offer special rates. Please check the Reservations section.

Do I have to wear a helmet?

Riders under 18 are required by law to wear a helmet. One is provided with your rental.

Do I have to have lights?

State law requires cyclists to have front and rear lights when riding at night. We'll provide you with both as part of your rental.

What do I do with the bike overnight?

Bikes like to sleep indoors, just like people. If you're staying in a hotel, check with the bellhop, concierge, or reception to find out if you can take your bike to your room or if they want to keep it in their luggage room. Keeping the bike indoors overnight is the best way to avoid potential damage or theft.
