Sports Garage is a Canmore, Alberta-based outdoor equipment rental shop specializing in e-bike rentals, e-mountain bikes, ice cleats, and hiking poles. Located in the heart of the Canadian Rockies, Sports Garage provides rental gear designed for mountain trails, river-side rides, and icy conditions. The business offers multi-day and single-day e-bike options, including pedal-assist e-bikes and an e-mountain bike option, enabling riders of varying skill levels to explore the Legacy Trail, Bow River corridor, and nearby scenic routes.
Sports Garage's rental catalog includes short-term ice cleat rentals (one- to seven-day options) and hiking pole rentals, helping visitors maintain stability on winter trails and uneven terrain year-round. Rental durations are available to match trip lengths and seasonal needs.

For safety and convenience, Sports Garage pairs ice cleats with hiking poles when appropriate, and offers e-bike models aimed at accessible exploration rather than competitive racing.
