The riding position is comfortable and semi-upright. These are the rental bikes we recommend and supply for most
riders. Children's sizes are also available. We use Trek 7.4fx/7.5fx or equivalent. Cost $30/day; $145/week.

Mountain Bikes:
Equipped with smooth road tires, which makes them much
easier to propel down paved or gravel roads, these mountain bike rentals are
provided instead of hybrids when the surfaces are rougher,
such as in Iceland and Costa Rica. We usually use Trek 6700 or
equivalent. Cost in Canada is $45/day; $195/week. |
Road Racing Bikes:
Racing-style bicycles, with dropped handlebars and brake lever shifters, these agile bikes have narrow tires,
and are a delight for those who like riding a light, fast bike. We use Trek 2.1, 2.3, or equivalent, with triple
or compact cranks. Cost in Canada is $45/day; $195/week. Premium Madone 3.1 full carbon fiber bikes are available for $55/day; $265/week.

Tandem bikes:
These tandem bicycle rentals are available in limited quantities in Atlantic
Canada only. Please ask about their suitability on your
preferred adventure. Tandem bikes can sometimes be shipped
to other locations, in which case extra shipping charges
may apply. Provided bike may vary from picture. Trek T1000 in Canada $55/day; $295/week. |
Trailer bikes:
Attach one to the back of any adult's bike to turn it
into a tandem suitable for children up to 4’10”
tall. They can assist you by pedalling, or can simply
freewheel as you do all the work. They have no directional
or braking control. Cost in Canada $22/day; $15 if associated with adult rentals. |
Child Trailers:
We use really cool Burley D'Lite bicycle trailers, with
a total weight of 17 lbs, and a towing capacity of 100lbs.
They are suitable for one or two children, and have
storage pockets, rain covers, and sunscreens. Please
reserve well in advance. Cost in Canada $22/day; $15 if associated with adult rentals. |
