Why Riders Love the Garage Bunny
-
Progress at Your Own Pace
Use the adjustable helper cord to give your bike lift assistance at the start, then gradually dial it back to hop independently. Practice manuals with the assisted manual mode until you build strength and muscle memory.
-
Train Skills & Body Simultaneously
Your session isn’t just for technique — it’s a full-body, bike-specific workout in disguise. Expect gains in core, leg, and upper-body strength.
-
Built for Convenience & Compatibility
Use it in your garage, basement, or even living room — indoors or out. It’s compatible with 20”, 24”, 26”, 27.5”, and 29” wheels, so virtually any mountain or BMX bike will work.
-
Track Your Progress with Precision
A built-in height marker celebrates every hop milestone so you can visually track your improvements.
-
Perfect for Coaches, Camps & Riders Alike
Trainers, youth programs, and home users benefit. As a coach, you can isolate and teach components of technique face-to-face. As a rider, you get constant, repeatable practice.

Seriously addicting… my bunny hop dramatically improved after just a few days of using the Garage Bunny!

Simple and easy to learn a pretty hard skill with the Garage Bunny. Gets my approval!

Garage Bunny hop trainer is my dream came true! As a busy mother of 4, I don’t have much time practicing the skills anytime I want. This is why the bunny hop trainer is my life saver! Easy to put on/off, any weather, any time it is here at my service. Safe and fun way to practice hops, bunny hops, manual movements, suspension settings, and simply to feel and get to know the bike better! 😁

Super fun and intuitive to use. Plus, really addicting as you progress. Yup, you should get one.

I was always nervous to go bigger on my jumps because in real life there’s not a lot of room for error. Practicing on my Garage Bunny I now am more confident tackling any obstacles as I send it down the mountain.

Dude, seriously rad tool! Noticed a big diff in my bunny hops and manuals just after a couple of sessions. It’s sturdy, simple, and super effective. Plus, being able to tweak the resistance? Clutch!

Yo, this thing is dope! Easy setup and it’s got my back on those rainy days when I can’t hit the trails. Now I can practice my manuals in my living room without trashing my setup. Major win!

Game-changer! I’ve been grinding with the Garage Bunny for a week, and my hops have skyrocketed! It’s lowkey the best trainer out there for getting your skills sharp and your confidence up. Props to whoever designed this beast!

If you’re on the fence about the Garage Bunny, just get it! It’s a stellar piece of equipment that has significantly improved my manuals and bunny hops.
CG –
Really good way to learn bunny and manuals, and great exercise machine as well. I would say for manuals there could be a minor improvement, the height of the machine intervenes for my ideal manual position. I am using 29 MTB and I am 5-11, so at manual position, my back feels the top of the machine, and naturally leans for a support, which makes this kind a half manual. support for product is top notch!
Joseph C. –
The Garage Bunny is an essential for any serious biker. It’s transformed my skills and I’m now more confident on the trails. Plus, it’s a blast to use!

Awesome product! The Garage Bunny is not only great for practice but also a fun way to challenge yourself. It’s built well and feels super durable.

My 8-year-old son, who has autism, discovered his passion for BMX riding. To nurture his interest, we considered getting him the ninja bunny hop trainer. I had some reservations about it, so I reached out to the company to inquire about its suitability for autistic children. Richard La China from Ninja company provided exceptional customer service and addressed my concerns.
Putting the bunny hop trainer together was straightforward. Whilst I wasn’t sure how to teach my son to use it, he found it remarkably intuitive and he quickly grasped its functionality. Stepping onto it, he instinctively began executing small bunny hops. The confidence and joy on his face were truly priceless.

Love this! I’ve been biking for 8 months and want to get better on chunky terrain but I didn’t relish the idea of slamming my front wheel on rocks and logs practicing. Had this for 1 week just getting front wheel lifts down and my normal day to day rides have never felt more smooth. I use this every day for about 10 to 20 minutes (good workout despite the short time) I have no doubt that I’ll grow my skill in the comfort of my own home in no time! Shooting for a 12 inch vertical by Christmas, will update this review at the end of the year.

Grabbed the Garage Bunny for my kid and wow, total game changer. She was struggling with bunny hops before, now she’s popping ’em outside like nothing. Super easy setup and it folds outta the way in the garage. Honestly, if your kid’s into bikes, this thing is worth it.
