Free Long Term Rentals
Limited to Current UAF Students. For Staff/Faculty/Alumni, Check the Short Term Section Below.
The majority of our fleet is dedicated to keeping students on bikes, and comeletely for free. We give them out for 12 weeks, but require that you come in after 6 weeks for a checkup and we'll show you how to tune up your bike. If you are interested in one of these bikes, here's what you need to do:
- Stop by our office hours or make an appointment
- Bring your polar express card and helmet, If you don't own a helmet you can buy one there for $35
- Be prepared to make a $250 deposit (through credit, debit, check, or cash; credit/debit cards not charged)
It wouldn't hurt to give us a heads up to make sure we have a bike in your size.
Please note that the deposit isn't charged, held or withdrawn from your card's account. We only take the information off the card and keep it until the bike is returned.
