I have rented bikes only a few times. Fees vary by shop. A Fuji Altamira in Hawaii was $150.00 for 5 days but a Trek Domane in SLC was $75 for one day. Both were fun and worth it to me. It is one heck of a lot less hassle than packing, shipping, re-assembling, dis-assembling, packing again, shipping again, re-assembling at home again, schlepping all over. I suppose it all depends on what type of riding you will be doing.
