Step 3: Fill in your height

Enter your height in imperial or metric units. Here, you can also add extra cyclists and the software will allocate bikes of the same type to each one of them.

Step 4: Search for bikes

By clicking the search button: You made it! Please allow a moment or so, for our booking engine to display the results. The software combines offerings, availability and delivery cost by various vendors who cover the region. The total price you see there, is the total that you will pay for the bikes – this may change in case you add extras and accessories

Step 5 [optional]: Fine tuning your results by bike type or time

You can screen out all non related bike types by selecting only the ones you are interested in. If you are looking for an ebike, why seeing results for those lightweight road machines? Furthermore, you may specify when you want you bike to be delivered; yes, we can deliver 24/7 (charges apply for deliveries outside the normal working hours)

Step 6: Choose your bike

Step 7: [Optional] Change the frame size

All bikes sizes are categorized to suit your height. However, there are a few cases where cyclists prefer a bigger or smaller sized bike than the one selected by the software. Here you can override the preselection and choose the one you think is best (Note: only available bikes will be listed)

Step 8: Contact details and extras

Here you just input the contact details for us to contact you for any matter related to your booking. In the case of multiple cycling, it is very important to enter the contact details for each one of them and select who is the group leader. Based on our experience, it i very helpful to deal with minor issues with the riders directly, plus that this enable us to have more phone numbers in case of an emergency (e.g. in the mountains, not all have the reception).
Select your extras: Every bike comes with particular extras and accessories. By clicking what you need you instantly get an overview of the extra cost, and upon selecting that it is automatically added to the total cost.
