Hi everyone,
The last time I rented a bike in Tokyo was maybe 12 years ago, when I'd stroll up to an Oryx office in Ginza, pay, then bike.
As I'm finally back at a time when the weather isn't awful, I'd like to hear your recommendations about a full-day bike rental. Some reviews of those QR code/app-based companies are no bueno, and then there are the non-chain brick-and-mortar spots….
To wit, last week I walked into one by Asakusabashi, where they didn't want to show me the Japanese price list (in spite of speaking Japanese with them). Their English-language quotes started at around ¥4500. Damn, that's a lot of hyphens in this post.
Anyway, would it be worth checking out a train hub in one of the less-visited ku to find a more reasonable rate? Ultimately, it doesn't matter where I bike, it's just fun to explore the side streets, yaki imo it up, etc.
Appreciate your help.
