Our group rented bikes from Ike and Kenny and had an amazing time! They were super friendly and knowledgeable, the bikes were in great condition and the rental spot was very convenient. The trails (Dead Horse) were a lot of fun too (we had beginner to advanced riders in our group). Would highly recommend!
My girlfriends and I rented bikes from Big Horn Mountain Biking and I had the best day I’ve had all year! Renting the bikes at the trail head takes all the fuss and planning out the trip, instead you get the enjoy the ride and the AMAZING VIEWS. The bikes were like new and perfectly tuned, and Ike was super friendly and helpful. Would love to go back and would definitely recommend as a Moab must!
I normally never rate anything but this topnotch mtb outfitter deserves credit for fixing a booking that failed because of the 3rd party booking firm, TripOutside, neglected to follow through and follow up from my initial reservation. Kenny called out of concern and allowed us to experience my dream MTBing in the Moab area. We had new top full suspension bikes that were set up perfectly for our riding at Dead Horse. Book directly with Kenny and his professional team members.You won’t regret!

Keep in mind, opting for the full day option means more biking, which is strenuous even if you stay on beginner level trails.
