Could you help me?

I would like to know why the option (1) is wrong. Could you explain to me how (1) sounds like?

I also wonder if I can answer like "I will use it myselt".

Thanks.

A: Can I borrow your bike on Saturday?

B: I'm sorry, but ( ) it myself.

(1) I'd use

(2) I've used

(3) I'll be using

(4) I'll have used

I also wonder if I can answer like "I will use it myselt". No. Simple future is n
