    • Free use of WiFi in our shop
    • Bag & Luggage storage while you're riding

    • Reservations for rental bikes are highly recommended.  Don’t risk showing up to a sold-out shop- our bike rentals have the same no-hassle 24-hour cancellation policy so you can book without hesitation.
    • You will get an instant confirmation after booking online- just start by selecting your pick-up date, number of bikes, and how long you would like to keep them.
    • Reserved bikes are ready starting at 9:30am, so you can pick up anytime that day starting bright and early.
    • The longer you keep your bike the more of a discount you get.  Once you have your bike, feel free to keep it longer and just pay the difference whenever you return.  It’s that easy- just please note our shop’s opening and seasonal hours for when you can pick up and return bikes.
    • Biking with kids?  We have a full range of kid’s bikes and equipment at regular rental prices.  Additionally we have kids seats starting at €4/day and tag-a-longs start at €7/day.  Just note in the comments during your booking what you would like to reserve and we will confirm with you by email.
    • The Saddle Bag set costs €5/day. You can rent them when you are booking your Trekking Bike.
    • We think you deserve all 24 hours of a day, so a “Day Rental” for us means 24 hours.  That means if you pick up your bikes at 10am, then a one day rental covers you until 10am the following day.
    • Our staff is multi-lingual and happy to help you in any way possible when you pick up your bike.

  • You'll pick up your bike at our fully-stocked shop, centrally located at the base of the giant TV Tower (Fernsehturm) in Alexanderplatz.  It's fast and easy to find, and a great place to start your Berlin exploration by bike.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Expand/Collapse Are the bikes easy to use, even if I haven’t cycled in a while?

    Oh yes.  While our cruiser-style bikes are arguably more comfortable than our trekking bikes, if you prefer a more mountain bike-style, we think that you'll find these bikes perfect.  

  • Expand/Collapse Are reservations required to rent a bike?

    Reservations are highly recommended, but not required.  We suggest that you book in advance so that you are guaranteed a bike.  If you do not have a reservation don’t worry, just come on by our shop and we will be happy to rent you a bike as bikes are often still available.

  • Expand/Collapse What if I want to keep the bike longer, or can’t make it back on time?

    Don’t sweat.  Our customers frequently keep their bikes longer than expected because they are so much fun to ride in Berlin.  For €5 per group, you can secure our 'overnight return policy'.  Should you need to keep your bike longer than expected, you can simply lock your bike up outside of our office and drop your key in a secure lockbox that we'll point out to you when you start your rental.  Or, if you'd like to keep your bike for a full extra day, you can simply settle up the remaining balance when you return.  We're happy to confirm our seasonal opening times when you pick your bike up so that you can plan accordingly. 

  • Expand/Collapse Is biking in Berlin safe?

    Yes, and it really is the best way to see the city.  Bike lanes are all over the place, and if not, just ride in the street like a local- you will make lots of cycling friends!

  • Expand/Collapse Will my pants get dirty when they touch the chain?

    No, our bikes have chain guards so your pants won’t come in contact with the chain at all.

  • Expand/Collapse Do you have baskets on the bikes?

    All of our bikes have a luggage rack on the back, and we have straps in our shop for you to use.  If you are carrying something like extra coats or small items, this will be perfect for you.  We have a luggage room free of charge if you would like to leave larger bags with us while you cycle.

  • Expand/Collapse Do I need to leave a deposit?

    Yes, but it’s very easy.  You can either leave your picture ID, driver’s license, or a credit card number with us in the shop.  Just let us know which when you come to pick up your bike.  At that same time we have a short disclaimer for you to sign.

  • Expand/Collapse How do I lock up the bike?

    Included with your rental is a cable lock that you can use to lock your bike securely, even if you are keeping it overnight.  Our adult bikes also come with frame locks as well, so you will be very safe and secure.  We will show you how everything works when you pick up your bike.

  • Expand/Collapse What happens if I get a flat?

    Flats, while rare, do happen.  With any bike sometimes things break, so we will get you back up and running as quickly as possible.  If you aren’t near our shop, just bring your bike back on the train, just remember to validate a bike ticket for the fare.  We will reimburse this to you when you get back.
