Renting a bike from Ride Ventoux is simple. Our online booking system allows you to choose your bike, add optional protection services and confirm your reservation by paying only 50% of the total amount online.
Here is how it works.
1. Choose your rental dates and times
Go to the Bike Rental section of our website and select:
- Your rental start date
- Your bike collection time
- Your return date
- Your return time
Our booking system will automatically show you the bikes that are available for your selected rental period.
2. Choose your bike and size
Select the bike model you would like to rent and choose the size that best suits you.
Only bikes available during your selected dates will be displayed, making it easy to see exactly what is available for your trip.
If you are unsure about sizing, you can always contact us before booking.
3. Add optional Bike Insurance
On the bike page, you can also add our optional Bike Insurance service.
We offer two levels of protection:
Silver Insurance — €15
The Silver package covers 50% of the cost of accidental damage that may occur to the bicycle during your rental period.
Damage costs are calculated according to the applicable TTC retail price of the damaged component or item.
Gold Insurance — €30
The Gold package provides 100% coverage for accidental damage during your rental period.
Please note that Bike Insurance covers damage only. It does not cover theft or loss of the bicycle.
Both Silver and Gold Insurance are charged as a one-time fee per rental, not per day.
4. Add Flexible Cancellation if you want maximum flexibility
When you reach your shopping cart, you can add our optional Flexible Cancellation service for €15.
With Free Cancellation, you can cancel your reservation without having to provide a reason and receive a 100% refund of your reservation payments, provided the cancellation is made before the start of your rental period.
The €15 Free Cancellation service fee itself is non-refundable.
If Free Cancellation is not purchased, the 50% reservation payment made online is non-refundable in the event of cancellation.
5. Pay only 50% when booking online
You do not need to pay the full rental amount when making your reservation.
To confirm your booking, you simply pay 50% of the total reservation amount online.
Our online payment system is powered by Stripe, an internationally recognised secure payment platform. Ride Ventoux does not store your credit card details.
The remaining balance is paid when you collect your bike.
6. Pay the remaining 50% when you arrive
When you come to Ride Ventoux to collect your bicycle, you can pay the remaining 50% of your reservation directly at the shop.
Payment can be made by:
- Credit card
- Cash
This means you can secure your bike in advance without having to pay the full rental amount immediately.
7. Bike setup and test ride
When you arrive for your reservation, we will take the necessary measurements and adjust the bike for you.
We will:
- Adjust your saddle height
- Check the general setup of the bicycle
- Make any necessary final adjustments
- Give you the opportunity to take a short test ride
Once you are comfortable with the bike and have approved the setup, you are ready to ride.
Save time before your arrival
If you already know your preferred pedal system and the saddle height of your own bicycle, please share this information with us before your arrival.
This allows us to prepare your bike in advance and helps you spend less time in the shop and more time riding.
We can prepare your rental bike with your preferred pedal system, including common road, MTB and flat pedal options.
