What Comes With My Rental?
Rock The Bike sends you the bikes and blenders you ordered, but we do not supply any cups or ingredients for making smoothies. Be prepared to acquire these items before your event! Check out our helpful guide, as well as shopping lists for serving 100 smoothies in two hours or 500+ smoothies over two days.

Rent-To-Own Program
If you fall in love with your Bike Blender, and we think you will, you may purchase it from us! You must let us know immediately (within 1 day of your event’s end date) that you intend to purchase the bike, and the full cost of your rental will go toward the purchase. The remainder must be received within 5 business days. Failure to pay within that time frame will result in late fees.
Bikes are brandable! With the increasing number of people taking photographs at events, this gives your company a boost on social media.
If you would like us to crew your event, please take a look at our Crewed Smoothie Booth page.
What our clients are saying
“We were thrilled to feature one of Rock the Bike’s fender blender stationary bicycles in a health fair planned by San Francisco State University senior nursing students for the Samoan and Pacific Islander community. The event was the first-ever health fair at the Samoan Community Development Center in the Sunnydale area of San Francisco, an underserved community. Children and adults alike loved the smoothie bike, and even nursing students organizing the event were eager to give it a spin. What a clever way to blend the concepts of diet and exercise. Thank you, Rock the Bike!” Shea B., BSN RN
“We would like to thank you allowing us to rent smoothie bikes for this year’s FunFest at the SF Giants’ AT&T Park! We managed to serve out over 2,200 smoothies and received more thanks and smiles than we could have ever asked for. This was a first for LIFT and you helped us pull it off! Thanks again for working with us on such short notice and for helping us make this past weekend a success!” – Caitlin M., LIFT For Teens
“The PCMA event in San Diego was a huge hit thanks to you and your team.” – Andrew P., Vancouver Convention Centre
“It was great! A huge hit at our wedding!” – Becky and Jeff

Cost
We rent our best Bike Blender, the Fender Blender Pro (High Performance), for $250 per event day. Each comes with a commercial-grade, NSF-rated 48-oz blender pitcher, the same kind in use at smoothie shops. Extra pitchers can be rented for $20, and we recommend extras so you can increase the throughput of the activity. Please see our helpful guide on estimating how many Bike Blenders and pitchers you’ll need for your event.
Example Rental Estimate for a one-day event in New York City
| Item | Cost |
| 1 Bike Blender | $250 |
| 1 Additional Pitcher (total of 2) | $20 |
| Packaging Fee | $85 |
| FedEx Ground Round Trip Shipping | $130 |
| TOTAL | $515 |
Duration
Our tier system allows you to save money on an event that requires multiple bike blenders or multiple days.
To calculate eligibility:
| QTY of bikes x Event Days | Discount |
| 3 – 7 | 10% |
| 8 – 19 | 18% |
| 20+ | 25% |
For example, if you want two bike blenders at your 3-day conference your calculation would be 2 x 3 = 6, saving you 10% on the rental fee.
Multi-Bike / Multi-Day Discounts only apply to the cost of rented gear. Discounts are not applicable for packing fees or shipping costs.
Location & Shipping
For rentals in the Bay Area, the client is responsible for pickup and drop off. There is no charge to pick up a day before your event and return the day after. Our main pickup location is our workshop in Oakland, but we can also arrange pickup in San Francisco. Our delivery fee starts at $150.
For out-of-town rentals, we package and ship the Fender Blenders to you so they arrive the day before your event. Then you ship them back the day after your event. The rental rate is $250 per event day + cost of shipping both ways (usually $150 – $300 per bike in the continental US) and a packaging fee of $85. If this cost is too great for your budget, we recommend purchasing a FB Universale, which starts at $249. Unfortunately, we do not rent the Fender Blender Universale.
If you’d like to receive your bike 2 days prior to your event, rather than the standard 1 day prior, a Practice Day can be added for an additional $100 / bike.
Pallet Shipping Option
Ship your rental on a pallet anywhere in the Continental US and receive your Fender Blender Pro ready to blend, no assembly necessary! Contact us today to get an estimate (please provide a destination address). Pallet packaging is $120 for 1-2 bike blenders, or $150 for 2 pallets for 3+ Bike Blenders.
