Hi all: I understand that Hiawatha Cyclery in Minneapolis closed. Does anyone know if there's a Riv dealer in the Twin Cities now?

I'm debating flying with my Riv or seeking a rental when I arrive. Last visit I rode Nice Ride bike share, which was cool but not great for longer distances. Any recommendations on bike rental?

Thanks,
Sean

Sean, we may be the closest dealer to you.  I'm in Indianapolis.  

Please let me know if I can help.

Thanks

Chris

Thanks Chris. I live within biking distance of Rivendell in Walnut Creek. I visit the Twin Cities from time to time and was wondering if there was a Riv dealer there these days that may be willing to rent me at least a Riv-like build.

 

Cheers,
Sean

Sean,

You may want to try a peer-to-peer rental like Spinlister (There may be others).  Here's what came up for me when I typed in Minneapolis:  https://www.spinlister.com/search/s/minnesota/c/minneapolis/loc/44.977753/-93.26501080000003/z/13

There was an Alex Singer and a Surly LHT on there.  Handsome is also located there and have some nice bikes.  The owners grew up idolizing Bridgestone and their Handsome Devil is a pretty nice bike (a little more aggressive geometry than Rivs).  They may have demos to rent.

Happy travels,
John
