The operational reality
A bike fleet is not interchangeable stock — it is individual assets, each with a frame size, a service history, and a battery that needs turnaround time. Booking "an e-bike" and sorting out which one on the morning of pickup is how you hand over a bike with a flagged brake.
What your day has to balance
- Frame size matching (S / M / L / XL) per booking
- Battery and cleaning turnaround time between hires
- Service history and safety checks per bike
- Shared fleet across rentals, walk-in hire, and guided tours
- Security deposit pre-authorisation and release
How RidgeHQ helps
Every bike is tracked as an individual unit with its frame size and service state, and a rental books a specific bike for a time window — so the bike handed over is the one that was booked, and one flagged for service never goes out.
From booking to day close:
Book online. A rider books a bike or tour online and pays.
Reserve the bike. A specific bike of the right size is reserved for the time window.
Sign the waiver. The rider signs before pickup.
Check service. Bikes with open maintenance records are out of availability.
Run the tour. Guides are assigned; overlaps refused.
Close the day. Returns, hire, and retail settle at the register and land in reporting.

Book a specific bike, not just a category
A bike fleet is individual assets, not interchangeable stock. Rentals book a specific unit for a date and time window, and availability is checked size-for-size.
- Booking widget on your own website with live availability, deposit or full payment, and promo codes
- Front-desk POS for walk-ins, rentals, and retail on one basket, with register open and close
- Agent and partner bookings recorded with their commission for settlement
- 0% platform commission on direct bookings
- Timed rentals of a specific bike, with dates and start and end times

Service state that controls availability
Opening a maintenance record takes a bike out of availability immediately and puts it back when it's returned. Overdue repairs are flagged and the register exports to CSV.
- Bikes tracked as units with frame size
- Maintenance records with vendor, expected return, and overdue flags
- Weekly rental planner by unit
- Support vehicles as fleet assets with licence and insurance alerts
- Retail stock records for accessories

Guided tours on the same system
Tours run in the planner with guides, rosters, and per-participant waivers, drawing on the same bikes as hire.
- Overlap checks on guide assignments
- Trips with a driver or pilot and destination
- Per-participant waivers with typed signature and conditional questions
- Email everyone booked on a tour from the planner
- Changes to a paid booking create a credit note
