On the road its comfort while cruising that’s the main requirement, so either one of our Trek rental cycles will see you walking tall at the end of day one.
 
  • The bulk of our fleet is made up of our Trek 7500 hybrids which are available on all of our tours, and have unisex frames.
  • We find these bikes work well on the variety of surfaces we ride on, from the chip seal on New Zealand’s paved roads to the hard packed gravel on the Otago Rail Trail.
  • We also have available some Trek Hybrid 7300 bikes with low rise/step through frames.

  • On the Great West Coast Cycle , Southern Coast Cycle ,  West Coast and Glaciers Cycle , Southern Lakes Cycle and the Marlborough and West Coast Cycle tours clients have the choice of the Trek Hybrids or for NZ$35 per day, a Trek 1.5 road bike is available.

  • (Note – we may also use Cannondale T800’s or T2’s on the Great West Coast Cycle & Southern Coasts Cycle )
