What an incredible experience! I had a good friend come to visit from out of town to enjoy mountain biking and I live in Bella Vista near some great trails. I looked around for bike renting options and came across Encore Bike Rentals. I was blown away by the customer service and the fact they delivered the bike straight to me at the trail head. Super convenient and efficient! Bike was awesome too! Overall I would highly recommend renting from these folks.

Great experience with the Encore Team. Only the second time renting ebikes. Timely delivery of the bikes at our VRBO in the morning, complete orientation on the bike, including proper tuning of the suspension for both me and my husband. When the battery died on the way back to the VRBO via Little Sugar Tunnel Vision they were accommodating and met me in a nearby parking lot to pick up one of the ebikes. Preferred Fezzari ebike over Trek Trail. Fezzari was more like a traditional full squish with a responsive fork. Rented M for 5’2” rider (gotta know how to self adjust the dropper though!) and L for 5’10”. Perfect.

Encore bikes was a great choice for my day of mountain biking. I’ve been to NWA a few times and used other rentals but will be using Encore going forward. They delivered and picked up at destinations of my choice. Tyler was great is providing rainy day trail suggestions and give great advice before we headed out. Would recommend if you’re looking for the best way to enjoy the trails in Northwest Arkansas.

Great option for no hassle rental, they meet you at the trail of your choice and pick up when you're finished! Very polite and informative we rented the ebikes and did over 25 of singletrack miles in one day and we're in our mid 50's Great for big days Great job well recommended!

Encore bike rental and Tyler are the real deal! From the customer service and knowledge to the frictionless payment and bike rental, the day I spent riding the trails down in Bentonville was amazing. I will definitely be coming back for more trail riding and using Encore bike rentals again. I went with the Fezzari mtb e-bike. The bike was great and the power assistance of the e-bikes I would highly recommend checking one out if you haven't. You won't be disappointed if you let Encore and Tyler handle your next ride.

We've rented electric mountain bikes twice now from Encore and would HIGHLY recommend them. The scheduling/renting process was super easy online and I received email confirmation right away, as well as a reminder before the rental day. The electric bikes they have are AMAZING and I never want to ride in Bella Vista without them (my Florida riding legs are NOT up to par yet for BV riding lol). We met at Metfield the first time we rented from them and rode the trails straight from there that connected to Blowing Springs; and this time we had the bikes dropped off at our airbnb that had direct trail access down near Tanyard Creek. Tyler set up the bikes for each of us, explained how to use them, and we texted/called when ready for pickup. The quality and service is exceptional with Encore!

Super easy and the team is friendly and professional. I had been wanting to try some trials out and had talked to a couple rental places. They all seemed like a lot of work to get what I needed. Encore easily got me the bike I needed and met me and my friend on the trails a little bit early. It was a great day of riding - started well because of this service. I highly recommend Encore

Frequently Asked Questions

How does the Bike Delivery and Pickup thing work?

It’s actually pretty simple and really convenient for you!

First, Book Online by selecting the bikes and dates you want to ride. After payment you’ll answer some questions, one of which is your delivery address or trailhead you’d like to meet at. Next, you’ll select a time for delivery and pickup of the bikes. Our team will then schedule your delivery and make any changes that we need to. Keep in mind we are often serving multiple customers a day and need to move delivery times around accordingly (ie 4 customers can’t have 8am).

Day Of you rental you can also request pickup earlier than scheduled by calling 30-45 minutes before you’d like pickup.

Keep in mind, all bikes need to be ready for pickup between 4:30-5pm!

Where can I find up to date trail conditions or wet weather routes?

Wet Weather Routes: All trails systems have some form of “Wet Weather Route”. Back40/Little Sugar seem to always hold up the best as they are the natural Arkansas soil (no clay capping) and drain well. Please don’t hesitate to ask us for specific trail recommendations for just after or during rain storms.

 

 

 

Who should ride a Mountain Bike or E-MTB? Who shouldn't?

The design of mountain bikes has made the sport more accessible than ever. Our bikes will inspire confidence no matter your ability level. That said, a mountain bike is a tool that takes years to perfect using and needs to be respected. We have specific trials and riding areas that we can recommend based on your skill level. Remember Pre-Ride, Re-Ride, and Freeride any feature or trail and use your best judgment at all times.

NOTE: We don’t recommend our Full Suspension E-MTBs to newer riders who are not familiar with braking, shifting, and maneuvering a standard MTB. The added weight, speed and complexity of an E-MTB is often a better match for intermediate to advanced riders. If you are a newer rider you can also check out our E-Hardtails. 

If you have any chronic health conditions that may affect your ability to exercise please consult with your doctor before trying mountain biking, even with an E-bike.

We also offer Greenway/City E-Bikes for those looking to just cruise around and have fun outdoors!

 

Do you provide gear or protective equipment with your bike rentals?

We will provide you with a helmet with your rental, for FREE. You must wear your helmet at all times when riding our bikes.

We recommend knee pads and gloves for many of our trails. We don’t offer rentals of pads and gloves for sanitation reasons. We highly recommend visiting your local bike shop before arriving to ensure you have the protective equipment you need already with you. 

What shoes/clothes should I wear when riding?

Skate shoes are probably the best non-MTB Specific shoe for gripping on the platform pedals that our bikes have. Other good choices are trainers, running shoes, short hikers. No boots that limit your ankle movement. 

Clothing is a seasonal/personal matter but we recommend “dry-fit” type T-shirts and well-fitted shorts in late spring, summer, and early fall.  Baggy gym shorts tend to catch on the seat at the wrong times. In winter months a merino long sleeve and a vest are enough to get by most days. Check the weather before your scheduled rental date for the most up to date conditions.

When and Where do we rent the bikes?

We specialize in a delivery-only rental model for our bike rentals. This means that you book online or over the phone and we deliver the bike to you the day of your ride. 

We deliver as early as 8 am and pickup after 10am all the way to close. While booking online you’ll choose your times and delivery location. 

Where should we ride?

Bentonville, Bella Vista, and Rogers have a wide variety of trails that vary from mild to wild, cross country routes to freeride parks. We have a trail guide on our site that can help you make some initial decisions on where to ride and how to maximize your time while visiting the “Oz Trails”. We’re happy to provide trail recommendations and find out where you can have the most fun!

About Us

When we first visited Northwest Arkansas, we were blown away. Having spent a few years traveling and working remotely in our RV we were fortunate enough to have ridden our mountain bikes in many of our nation’s top destinations from Moab to Lake Tahoe and many places in between. We couldn’t stop thinking about how much fun we had in Bentonville after our first stop here. In fall of 2021 we decided to make Bella Vista our home.

Shortly after moving to Northwest Arkansas, we realized there was an opportunity to provide convenient, quality mountain bike rentals to the area. We provide delivery of our bike rentals right to your doorstep or nearest trailhead, getting you on the trails earlier, saving you time at the bike shop, and freeing you from the hassle of hauling a bike safely.
