Our Rental Bikes

Every bike in our fleet is checked and serviced by our mechanic before each tour, and our support van carries tools and spare parts every day. We’ll set up your bike and fit it properly when we meet.

Please note: depending on the tour you do, you might be given a different bike from those listed here. We’ll always confirm your bike before you travel.
