HYBRID BIKE
. HYBRID bikes are without a doubt the BEST CHOICE for cycle-touring and tackling the daily 25-60km of our tours. It is a bicycle for both performance and comfort: being light and aerodynamic, it can ride fast and handle climbs. With slightly wider tyres, a more upright position, and flat handlebars, the bikes offer a great deal of comfort too
. BERGAMONT - disk - or equivalent : Equipped with Shimano parts, light aluminium frames, and a double-plateau. Puncture proof tires. Weight : around 12.6 kg. Bike frames are UNISEX: when possible, we provide a comfortable woman saddle to all women riders - You can request it
Included equipment
helmet - pump - 1 front pannier & 2 rear panniers - 1 lock per bike & pump - 1 inner tube - 1 repair kit for 2 bikes - 1 mobile phone holder
EBIKE
. You can choose the E-BIKE option - with a supplement - on ALL our cycling trips! You can add a little extra pedal power with an E-Bike.
The E-bike is a wonderful compromise: while still pedalling, you can access to a perched village without being a great cyclist. How it works: when you begin pedalling, the electric motor is triggered. You can choose between several levels of electric assistance.
. BERGAMONT or equivalent - equipped with a 400W battery autonomy, a low frame (easy to get on and off), anti-puncture tires (reducing the risk of flats), hydraulic brakes (ensuring the highest standard of safety). Weight : around 26 kg

ROAD BIKE
. You can choose the road bike option - with a supplement - for our CHALLENGING biking tours, where you will ride for up 90 - 100km daily. . It’s an ultra-light bike - some are made entirely of carbon: the ultimate in performance. We recommend the road bikes only for those used to riding them. Though sleek and light, the bikes sacrifice comfort for speed, they’re more difficult to handle, and they’re not really meant to stop every 10km to visit villages… and automatic shoes also makes for difficult walking.
