Optimize Your Bike Setup for a Smooth Mont Ventoux Ride

To ensure a quick and seamless bike pickup, please provide the following details when making your reservation. By sharing this information in advance, we can have your bike perfectly adjusted and ready for you, minimizing wait times on busy days.

Essential for a Comfortable Climb

Saddle Height Adjustment

A properly set saddle height is crucial for tackling the long and challenging Mont Ventoux ascent. We use the Hamley Method to achieve the best fit. Please measure the distance from the center of the pedal spindle (when the crank arm is at the 6 o’clock position) to the middle of your saddle on your own bike and share this measurement with us.

📌 Without this information, we will need to measure your inseam and adjust the saddle height at pickup, which can take 5-10 minutes per person.

Pedal Selection

We offer the following pedals free of charge with every bike rental:
✔️ Flat pedals
✔️ Look Keo
✔️ Shimano SPD
✔️ Shimano SPD-SL

Please let us know in advance which pedal type matches your cycling shoes, so we can install them before your arrival.

📌 If not specified, pedal installation at pickup may take an additional 2 minutes.
