This company is new, although the owner has been operating an ebike business for a few years now. The website looked a bit suspicious at first, but after having a videocall with the owner, I can... See more

this complitly transformed our Burning Man experience. The bikes were powerful, reliable, and Playa-proof. The team was amazing — helpful, honest, and clearly passionate. Best investment we made for the Burn!

Best burning man bike rental experience

Two years ago it was my first burn, and I rented a bike from playa ebikes.
The overall experience was great, the costumer service helped me to finalize my needs, the pickup was smooth and the ride experience was amazing. I already booked mine for this year and highly recommend to everyone who is planing arriving the playa to do so.

Extreme 750w

I rented the Extreme 750W from Playa eBikes for my first Burning Man, and it was a total game,changer! The bike handled the dusty roads like a champ, and I barely had to think about charging. Plus, their team was super helpful, and the whole rental process was smooth. I'll definitely be back next year for another ride,no more Playa on foot for me!!!!

Went to Burning last min last year and needed to get an electric bike ASAP. Found this company; they were very helpful and were able to pick the bikes right before the playa. Great bikes, great experience. Highly recommended.

I got my e-bike from this company right before heading to Burning Man, and WOW it was the best decision for my burn! The people there were extremely friendly and helped me find the right bike quickly. The bike was easy to ride and worked perfectly in the desert/on the playa. It is easy to charge, and it made my trip SO much more fun and enjoyable. It’s too tiring to ride a regular/non electric bike all around the playa. I also love that I didn’t have to purchase a bike to keep. I just rented one and dropped it back off on my way home! So easy.

If you’re going to Burning Man or just want a really cool e-bike, this is the place to go. I loved it and I’ll definitely come back again next year!

Everything went smoothly even though we came last minute. Our bikes were ready, everything worked properly, and the accessories were ready too. The feeling of mutual cooperation and trust was a great way to start our BM journey. Put us exactly in the right vibe!

Definitly a one-of-a-kind service

Definitly a one-of-a-kind service. The annual pop-up is located halfway between Reno and BRC, providing an excellent solution to those who are looking for a fast E-Bike rental or purchase for the Burn. High-quality prodcuts.

Absolutely TERRIBLE

Absolutely TERRIBLE! Sold the “ you can pick it up on the to Burning man” - didn’t have the bike I bought -didn’t the accessories I paid for- didn’t have “time “ to assemble even though I paid for it and had to assemble myself - wouldn’t call back- wouldn’t reimburse- followed up multiple times and had to deal with credit card company - BUYER BEWARE

I got the eco bike this year

I got the eco bike this year, the bike is extremely comfortable, I had another e-bike the previous years, more powerful and it was sooo hard on the bumpy streets of the city or on the playa bumps that it was killing my back and neck, but this bike was so so so soft to ride
And the battery was pretty ok, with a little organization to charge as soon as not using it I could ride all week without any issue
So I clearly recommend
Also the pick up was so easy and the team really nice and cool 🤍
Thank you !

The bike completely broke

The bike completely broke. The first ride I took the chain was too tight and kept popping off every 30 seconds. I had the chain loosened and it then was popping off every 5 minutes or so. Shortly after this the key to the ignition broke off and the power to the moter was not available. I tried to return the bike and was met with rufusal to refund my money. I am very unsatisfied with the product and customer service to resolve the bike failure and refund my purchase as I was not able to use the bike as I had planned.

The bike was riding well.

The bike was riding super well.
Absolutely loved it!

I just had to find another locker because the one provided was really heavy and unpractical.
Same for lights, they should have batteries that lasts at least a week.

Overall it was a positive experience.

I hope that the document with the information is updated and my card is associated to the bike I’ve used (19), I’ve returned it clean (even though there was a huge duststorm right after that), with its brand new locker, battery charger, basket.

Horrible experience

Horrible experience! Ruined our burn! The bike is a really bad quality and was assembled bad! In the middle of the street! My wife had a huge accident of the first ride at the playa and got injured! We rented 3 bikes and all of them we had major problems! Never again with this company
