Bike hire is available all year round, subject to our availability and schedule. Our primary months of hire, where we will be available and open, are April to the end of October. Out of these months, please feel free to call to confirm that we can fulfil your requirements. We are open 9am to 5pm except for Wednesday, where we try to take a day off. If your hire pick up or drop off has to be a Wednesday, please call us to discuss.

We will be happy to consider the delivery of your bikes in the areas local to St Helens, such as Bembridge, Nettlestone, Seaview and Brading. Where possible, please come and collect your bike from us at The Duver. We advise that you park at the National Trust Duver Car Park. It is then only a few minutes walk to us at Duver Marina.

There must be an adult aged 18 or over (the principal hirer) who will be using one of the e-bikes. The other may then be used by a child aged 14+. Sadly, we cannot hire the bikes if both users are under the age of 18. The cycle routes from The Duver Hire Co will require you to ride on public roads. Our cycle routes will always try to minimise road usage where possible. We can advise on the most relaxing routes and where to find a little more adventure, where required. The principal hirer must be aged 18+ for any booking.

Our rental rates vary depending on rental duration. The minimum hire period for an e-bike is a full day hire costing £40. The hire price will reduce for consecutive additional days of hire. Each rental includes a helmet, bike lock, and access to our Komoot App routes. For a longer hire period, the battery charger and battery key will also be supplied. Although unlikely, mechanical assistance is also always available.

The Voodoo Bizango eMTB's have eco, trail and turbo modes. Stay on Eco and you should be able to get 40 miles out of the battery. Stay on Turbo and this will be greatly reduced. For safety keep to a route plan of 20 to 30 miles, use Eco mode where possible, and save Trail of Turbo for the hills. Our bikes are limited to 15.5 mph with battery assist and any speed greater than that is either leg or gravity powered.

Our bikes are available for hire from Woodnutts Yard, The Duver, St Helens, Isle of Wight, PO33 1YB. Please note that although our address remains the same, we are now located within the marina area. Sadly, we do not have parking available, however the National Trust Car Park is only 400m away.

We are open for pick up's from 9am and if you have hired the bikes for a single day, they must be returned to us by 5pm latest that day. If you have hired for multiple consecutive days, the bikes still need to be returned by 5pm on the last day of hire. The Duver Hire Co reserves the right to charge a late return fee if deemed necessary. For instance a 2 day hire from a Friday will end on Saturday at 5pm. You do not have to pick the bikes up at 9am and a later pick up can be arranged. When booking, we would be grateful if you can make your best estimate for when you will arrive and drop off.

While walk-in hires are available, we highly recommend making a reservation in advance. During peak holiday times, reserving a bike ensures that you'll have the specific model and size that you require, and it will speed up the rental process on the day of your hire.

Accidents happen and we understand that. If a bike is damaged beyond the acceptable levels of wear and tear whilst in your care, you will be liable for the cost of repair to the bicycle. The cost will be fair and include the cost of the damaged part and time taken to fix the issue.

Sand and seawater will ruin a bicycle. As agreed in our terms and conditions, if a bike or bikes are used on the beach, we will charge you a £250 replacement cost per bike. We don't want to do this, so please just keep the bikes off the beach.
