When it comes to bicycle hire on the Central Otago bike trail, you'll hear a lot about who has most comfortable this, and most high-tech that. But not from us. Sure, our bikes are all top of the line. And yes, they've got a comfort saddle, a wide range of gears for easy riding, and front suspension to make the trip easier. But at the end of the day, they're bikes. And we believe the most important component on any bike is the part that connects the pedals, saddle and handlebars… and that’s you!
