Alpe d’Huez Bike Rental
Bourg d’Oisans — for Alpe d’Huez, Galibier, Croix de Fer and beyond
Most bike hire outfits hand you a carbon race bike and wave you off. That’s fine if you’re 30 and chasing KOMs. It’s not fine if you want to still be enjoying the ride on day six.
I lived in Bourg d’Oisans for over a decade and have ridden every col in the region multiple times. I know what it takes to be comfortable on a long day in the Alps — and I know that the bike has to fit the rider, not the other way round.
What you get
- Quality carbon all-road bikes — stiff where it matters, comfortable where it counts
- Proper fitting on arrival: saddle height, reach and stem adjustment
- Adjustments through your trip if something’s not right — not “sorry, that’s how it came”
- Gearing set up for Alpine gradients, not flat Sunday club runs
- Suitable for road, light gravel and bikepacking — one bike, most terrain
Who I work with
- Riders on an Alpe d’Huez or Oisans cycling holiday
- Tour de France spectators wanting to ride the route
- Étape du Tour, La Marmotte and Roubaix Challenge participants
- Point-to-point tours across the French Alps and beyond
