Staff was helpful and friendly. Enjoyed 3 rides in 2 days, summit road above Christchurch and two rides along the Avon River to the coast. Gravel bike was the perfect choice. Would have preferred an easier gear than 1:1, but I made it up the climb anyway!, Nathan Toke, 8 months ago > Adam and Stu were great in advising bike types and places to visit while in Christchurch. We hired 2 city style bikes for a week which allowed for greater exploration than walking while staying out of a car. They provided a helmet and lock for each bike. The location is easy to find and centrally located. If you are here for a conference or holiday, a bike hire from chill explore is a must., John, 11 months ago > I had a great experience hiring a MTB from Chill Explore. The online booking system was great, and very easy to use. When I turned up to pick up the bike, the staff were very friendly and helpful. Plus they are actually cyclists, so they know what they are talking about. I was in Christchurch for a work trip and wanted a bike to do some early morning rides before work. My bike was a Norco Storm 120, and it came with clip pedals, pump, spares and bottle cage. I brought my own quadlock mount, which the staff happily installed for me. The bike was in very good condition (it might have been brand, Tim Brosnan, 10 months ago ## Doors - [What stood on this ground](https://www.chch.live/before?lat=-43.529295&lon=172.6334208) - [On the map](https://www.chch.live/map#-43.529295,172.6334208,17) - [Documents that name it](https://www.chch.live/documents?q=Chill) - [Christchurch Central City](https://www.chch.live/christchurch-central-city), the suburb - [The OSM record](https://www.openstreetmap.org/node/10864350374), fix it there ## Questions, answered briefly **What is Chill?** A bike shop in Christchurch Central City, Christchurch. **Where is Chill?** 287 Durham Street North, Christchurch Central City, on [Durham Street North](https://www.chch.live/street/christchurch-central-city/durham-street-north).
