Reno - Bikes and Bike Repair


Some of these places go out of their way to cater to Burners, others are more likely to offer repair services or new bikes only. Check out the overviews of the shopping hubs to find out what any specific business has to offer, or give them a call and ask.

Black Rock Bicycles
7550 Hillview Dr – 775- 972-3336 – (Northtowne)
The only bike outfit in town primarily catered to burners. To rent a bike, please visit the website (highlighted above). However, if you wish to buy a bike or accessories (lock, bell, lights, basket, rack) at an unbeatable price, the burners of Black Rock Bicycles are teaming up with three of the local Save Mart supermarkets to sell new bikes at the stores for the week of Burning Man. Look into the Save Mart listings in the Keystone, Plumb, and Prater hubs for hours and how to get there. You can also find Black Rock Bicycles at Prism Magic Clothing in the Pyramid hub of Sparks.

Kiwanis Bike Program
2605 Comstock Road - 775-746-9310 – (Downtown)
Normally a bike program to benefit kids of all ages, the great folks of the Kiwanis Bike Program receive large numbers of bikes left on the playa each year, and end up setting aside bikes for burners to purchase for Burning Man. There are two ways to purchase one of these bikes: one way is to visit the website (highlighted above) for pre-purchase, the other way is the week of Burning Man at the Save Mart supermarket located in the Keystone shopping hub. Either way, GET EM WHILE THEY LAST!

Reno Bike Project
