This particular shop's rental program was aimed more at long-term rental for events such as multi-day rides. The fee they quoted me was actually for one day, but I really only needed the bike for a few hours. Unfortunately they didn't have an hourly fee. And so the idea of laying down more than $1500 just to ride for a few hours didn't sit well with me.

At those rental prices seems like it would be cheaper to buy an inexpensive bike on CL and just sell it or give it away after you're done.
