RideTHISbike at 231 Dauphine St in the French Quarter is a full-service bike shop founded after Hurricane Katrina as a neighborhood brick-and-mortar store. It sells and services all types of bicycles, including beach cruisers, mountain, street, and racing bikes, carries Brompton and Montague folding bikes, and offers e-bike tours and rentals maintained by its own staff mechanics. E-bike involvement is concrete: place offerings include Blaupunkt and Greaser e-bikes, and buying an e-bike there is a recurring theme. A May 2025 account of a new e-bike purchase describes the entire staff as super friendly and easygoing with phenomenal service; a September 2021 account credits Larry with fitting a City Cruiser and suggesting off-the-beaten-path routes via the Lafitte Greenway to City Park; and a MapQuest account recalls a quick free chain fix as neighborly. A January 2026 account of rudeness from one staff member is the counterpoint. The record reads as a friendly quarter bike shop with real e-bike sales and service, worth a visit when a familiar face like Larry is at the counter.
