Please do not continue riding a bike with a serious mechanical problem, as doing so may cause additional damage.

Your rental includes a spare tube and puncture repair kit. You are responsible for basic puncture repairs during your ride. If you are unsure how to change a tube, we recommend learning before your ride or carrying additional spare tubes. For long rides and major cycling events, we strongly recommend carrying at least one additional spare tube.

We generally aim to deliver bikes around 09:00 on the first day of your rental, although exact delivery times depend on your location, our delivery route and other scheduled bookings. Where possible, we may deliver your bike the evening before your rental starts at no additional rental charge, but this is subject to availability and cannot be guaranteed. On the final rental day, bikes are collected no later than 16:30. The exact collection time will be arranged with you in advance. If you require a specific early delivery or different collection arrangement, please contact us in advance. Additional call-out fees may apply.

No. Our rental days run from 09:00 to 16:30 or part thereof. Rental charges are based on the number of calendar days the bike is out on rental, rather than the number of hours you actually ride it.

No. Only the person or people listed on the rental booking are permitted to ride the rental bikes. If another person wants to ride the bike, this must be agreed with BicycleRentals.co beforehand.

Yes. We regularly deliver bikes to hotels, guesthouses and other accommodation. In some cases, we can arrange delivery directly to the hotel reception if the hotel is willing to accept the bike. Please provide the hotel name, address and booking details when making your reservation.

Yes! The Cape Town Cycle Tour is one of our busiest periods of the year, so special booking conditions apply. During Cape Town Cycle Tour week, a minimum 7-day rental charge applies, even if you only use the bike for fewer days. We strongly recommend receiving your bike early enough to complete a test ride and check the setup before race day. All Cape Town Cycle Tour bookings are subject to the specific terms and cancellation policy published on our dedicated Cape Town Cycle Tour booking page.

Please contact us with your requirements and travel plans. Depending on availability, we may be able to assist with bike transport equipment or recommend a suitable local solution.

Yes, depending on your location and our delivery schedule. Cape Town Cycle Tour week is one of our busiest periods of the year, and our normal delivery area may be restricted during race week. Deliveries outside our main Cape Town and Stellenbosch routes are therefore subject to availability. We prefer to deliver the bike directly to your accommodation before the event. Customers should not plan to transport rental bikes over longer distances in their own vehicle unless this has been agreed with us in advance. After the Cape Town Cycle Tour, we aim to collect as many rental bikes as possible near the event finish area, with the exact collection point and arrangements communicated before race day. This helps avoid unnecessary transport of the bike after the event. If you're staying outside Cape Town or Stellenbosch, please send us your exact accommodation address before booking so we can confirm the best delivery and collection arrangement. Additional delivery charges may apply depending on the location.
