BikeRental.cc Arrives in Canberra with Cranky’s Bicycle Worx!
We’re thrilled to announce that Cranky’s Bicycle Worx is now the official BikeRental.cc partner in Canberra! Known for their exceptional bike servicing and deep connection to the local cycling community, Cranky’s is the perfect location to introduce premium road bike rentals to the ACT.
This partnership brings high-performance road bike rentals to Canberra, giving locals and visitors access to world-class bikes for their next ride. Whether you’re looking to explore the scenic climbs around Black Mountain, tackle the Brindabellas, or enjoy a weekend ride with mates, BikeRental.cc at Cranky’s has you covered.
The Journey to Canberra
This partnership has been in the works for some time. We first met Cranky’s owner Stuart Carling and his team at the Tour Down Under in 2024, where we had some great chats about cycling, business, and what riders in Canberra need. Fast forward to 2025, we reconnected at TDU again, and this time, the timing was perfect to bring BikeRental.cc to Canberra.
This week, Jasper from our team hit the road, driving down to Canberra to personally deliver the first rental bike and onboard Stuart and Jimmy into the BikeRental.cc network. With this, Canberra officially joins our growing list of locations across Australia and beyond.
Cranky’s is Now a Chapter2 Dealer
Alongside BikeRental.cc, Cranky’s is also Canberra’s newest Chapter2 Bikes dealer. Chapter2 is a boutique performance bike brand from New Zealand, known for its high-quality carbon frames, race-ready performance, and custom build options.
Unlike mass-produced bikes, every Chapter2 frameset is built to order, meaning customers can choose their frame colour, stem length, handlebar width, crank length, and more to create a ride that’s truly tailored to them.
Canberra riders now have the chance to test and experience Chapter2 bikes firsthand before committing to a build.
What This Means for Canberra’s Cycling Community
- Premium Road Bike Rentals: A fleet of high-performance bikes will now be available for hire in Canberra.
- Try Before You Buy: Riders interested in Chapter2 Bikes can test ride a bike before purchasing.
- Expert Support: Stuart and his team at Cranky’s bring years of experience in bike servicing, fitting, and expert advice to help riders get the best out of their experience.
