High-quality rental bikes for all tastes

Rental bikes on our cycling trips

On our cycling trips, you can choose to rent different types of bicycles. They are always robust and of high quality, to handle many cycling trips during a season. Since we cover a variety of destinations, brands and models vary, but bicycle types and equipment are similar regardless of trip. Read more about our bicycles and how they are equipped below.

What bike types can I choose on the cycling trip?

For each trip we specify which bike types are available, and you can easily choose the one you want when booking the trip. Below we provide general information about how the different types differ and what they look like.

Touring bike

A relaxed and easy-to-ride classic for pleasant days on asphalt. Upright riding position and sometimes low step-through for everyone (unisex). Usually has 7 gears, hand brakes front/back and sometimes also coaster brake. Suitable for uncomplicated cycling on asphalt "with the baguette in the bike basket".

Hybrid / Trekking bike

The perfect all-round bike for longer cycling days on both asphalt and light gravel. It combines the touring bike's comfort with a slightly more active riding position that works for longer days. Straight handlebars, comfortable saddle, good adjustment options, 21-27 gears and hand brakes front and back. If low step-through is important to you, please specify this when booking the trip.

E-bike

The great thing about the e-bike is that it both lowers the difficulty level of the trip and evens out differences between travel companions. Usually of the touring or trekking/hybrid type. You choose the assistance level and the motor only drives when you pedal. The battery lasts all day with medium assistance, and you can charge your bike at all accommodations. Charger is naturally included.

Road bike

A light and fast bike for you who want to enjoy speed and flow on fine asphalt. Drop handlebars, high-class components and frame in aluminum or carbon fiber. Sometimes e-bikes of road bike model are offered.

Gravel bike

A more robust road bike with adventure feel that handles both asphalt and gravel roads. Same drop handlebars and sporty geometry but coarser tires and sometimes some front suspension. In some cases e-bikes of gravel model are offered.

Children's bike or bike trailer

If you want to raise the next generation to the joys of cycling trips, we can often offer children's bikes or bike trailers. Ask us about your specific destination!

Bring your own bike

Hopefully your steed is a bit sharper than the one in the picture, but you can always bring your own bike as special baggage on flights or trains. Please specify this in the booking.
