Green Budget Bikes

If I could put zero stars I would, I bought a bag and the zipper broke, I took a taxi to exchange it for a the same bag and they said it has been 5 days so I am out of luck, very bad customer service, please find another nice bike shop to support in Amsterdam!!!

The good part is the staff made it very clear of all the rules and cost before we took the bicycles out and answered all questions thoroughly.
THE COST: The only reason we rented here instead of the hundred other possible places to rent a bicycle is because of an ad saying 5 Euros rental, that is a very limited bait and switch ad. When you get to the place the price list for 5 Euros only covers one type of bicycle per hour, the fixed — gear coaster (push-​back pedal) brake bicycle. Fixed gear could mean stuck at pedaling anything from too loose or you need protein powder goes with the bicycle ride. Add 1 Euro for insurance… and I’m not sure if it covers this… if the bicycle is stolen or lost, the cost will be 650 Euros, no exaggeration. It is stated in the fine print… 1250 Euros for a Tandem bicycle. Yes, like Ellie B. reviewed, it’s 15 Euros for a broke key, wasn’t me!
Regular bicycle rental goes like this besides the mentioned above: choose handbrake or coaster (push-​back pedal) brakes. One cost more than the other, I forget exactly which. But I believe the handbrakes cost a Euro or so more.
Besides mentioned above prices are approximately
1 Hour = 7 Euros to 8 Euros
3 Hour = is 8.50 Euros to 10 Euros
1 Day = 9 Euros (Fixed Gear) to 16.50 Euros
And the price goes up from there for a fews days max price on list is 42.50 Euros.
The more bicycles you rent, you get a discount
5 Euros my butt.

RULE 1: Bring it back on time or if you were like us who got there an hour or so before closing, bring the bicycles back 15 minutes before closing otherwise you’re renting over night.
PASSPORT: I was wary and very reluctant to do this and I will be more cautious next time but they held my passport while I was out for a ride. Of course I got it back when I returned their bicycle.
TWO LOCKS: There’s a wheel lock (to lock the wheel) and a frame lock (to lock to a pole or bicycle parking). Both were explained clearly and I made sure it operated smoothly before leaving with bicycles. The bicycles also have lights.
OPERATION: Smooth and strong to hold up against a true bicycle rider like me, I don’t do strolls in the park. I wish I could brought my Cannondale or my old Peugeot.
No Problems, luckily, I was worried about all those catches though.

BE CAREFUL!
We rented a bike here yesterday and the key to the lock just broke in half, without forcing it or bending it. So my boyfriend took it back in order to get a new lock, we can’t leave the bike unlocked. The guy tells him that it’s 15 euro for a new key… really? The bike rental is only 12 Euro a day. Sounds like a scam-​give the tourist a faulty key, then charge him an arm and a leg for it. The guy then said he will be nice and only ask for 10 euro-​my boyfriend offered him 5. The guy ended up going nuclear and throwing him out of the store.
A couple of guys at the hostel mentioned that someone had two rental bikes «stolen» right in front of the store, and charged 500 euro each. Sounds fishy. Maybe the thieves had the keys, «somehow»?

Les vélos sont pas mal mais le service est mauvais. Nous avons loué un tandem pour une journée et deux vélos pour 3 heures. Les vélos sont corrects, un peu lourds mais fonctionnent bien, les prix né sont pas exorbitants (affichés sur le site) mais le vendeur (sans doute propriétaire vu l’attitude) est très désagréable, aucun sens de la relation client.
Attention à bien verrouiller les vélos, le prix de remplacement est exorbitant…
En plus un supplément de 2,50 € est appliqué aux cartes VISA (je né l’ai vu noté nul part…)
