Community Cycles in Boulder doesn't rent bikes, but we get asked about it all the time. Our work around is that we'll sell you a bike and then you can donate it back when you're done. No deposit, return it in whatever shape.

I don't know if we've had any takers to date, but it evens out with our local bike rental places after about 5 days or so.

Has anyone tried loaning bikes with a deposit? Maybe some amount around what it costs to build the bike?
