Vancouver Bike Share and Bike Rentals
Vancouver's mobi bike share program combined with an extensive network of bike lanes and the seawall provide a great option for exploring the city.
A good option for visitors to explore Vancouver is the Mobi bike share system. As of 2025, Vancouver Bike Share by rogers_arena has over 260 stations and 2000 classic bikes and 600 ebikes located throughout the downtown peninsula, False Creek, Kitsilano and Mount Pleasant.
While negotiating downtown Vancouver on a bike may not be for everyone, there are miles of dedicated bike lanes and bike paths to enjoy. Ideal uses for a mobi bike include a leisurely ride around the Stanley Park Seawall or around False Creek. Both options offer stunning views. Renting a bike to explore Stanley Park has been a popular activity with Vancouver visitors for decades and many private bike rental outlets are located a short distance to the park entrance. Some even offer guided bike tours. The mobi bike share program provides visitors another option and there are several docking stations convenient to the park entrance.
Mobi offers several short-term pricing options suitable for visitors.
Short-Term Payment Options
| Payment Type | Price |
|---|---|
| Single Trip Classic Bike | $1 Unlock + 29¢/min - $3 Minimum |
| Single Trip eBike | $1.75 Unlock + 39¢/min - $3 Minimum |
| 30 Day Pass - Classic Bike | $49.00 - all trips under 30 minutes included. Excess minutes are 29¢ /min |
| 30 Day Pass - eBike | $49.00 - + 29¢/min for all trips |
The best option for your needs will depend on how you often and long you are going to be using the bike for.
If you're visiting Vancouver for a several days or more, a 30 day pass mobi pass might be worth considering as it will give you unlimited rides of up to 30 minutes at a time along with the convenience of many docking stations throughout the city.
Consider other Bike Rental Companies
You should definitely consider using one of the other private bike rental shops, especially if you are riding around Stanley Park. Using the Pay per Ride pricing a leisurely 1.5 hour ride around the Stanley Park seawall on a mobi bike costs about $27. A short distance from the park entrance, Spokes Bicycle Rentals charges $8.57 for one hour including a helmet and bike lock and Yes Cycle Adventures charges $11.00 for one hour. The private bike rental companies also offer a wider range of bikes, including tandem bikes.
Whichever option you end up choosing, the introduction of mobi bikes has led to lower rental rates as private shops endeavour to remain competitive.
If you need to stop where there's no docking station, each mobi bike is equipped with a lock, but keep in mind you are responsible if something does happen to the bike. Each bike is also equipped with a helmet, so you don't have to worry about bringing your own. While many riders elect not to wear their helmet, BC law requires it, so you could put yourself at risk of a ticket. The greater risk is getting hurt, so we recommend wearing the provided helmet.
