Acadia/Bar Harbor bike rental

We'll be staying in Hancock, ME, just east of Acadia, for the week of July 8. To help maintain connubial bliss, I'm not bringing a bike, but I should be able to sneak in a day or two of riding. Any recommendations for rental on Mt. Desert? Looks like two shops in Bar Harbor, Acadia Cycles and Bar Harbor Bikes, and Southwest in SW Harbor, and two of them rent cyclocross, which seems a good bet for the unpaved carriage roads.

Nothing definite but

I suspect any would be fine. My wife and niece rented from one of the places in Bar Harbor and it worked out well. It may depend on what type bike you want, I think they rent mostly mtn bikes. A cyclocross bike is optimal for the carriage paths, and they are nice, but I'd rather have a road bike and ride the Park Loop Rd, up Cadillac, out to NE and SW Harbors, etc. Have fun.
