27 Gears, 28" Wheels — Built for Distance
The core of the experience is the bike itself: a 27-speed setup paired with 28" wheels and a rear rack. That configuration favors sustained pace and rolling efficiency on long asphalt stretches.
Asphalt-Centric with Smooth Gravel Links
The Touringbikes XL is intended for rides where the majority of the route is on asphalt but can comfortably traverse even, well-kept gravel roads when the itinerary calls for it.
Speed and Endurance, Not Utility
This is a performance-oriented rental aimed at riders who want memorable, brisk miles rather than casual utility—note the deliberate choice of a rack over a basket and the absence of a footbrake.
