Aluguel de bicicletas em Bari

I would not recommend Velo Service Rental. You may read the full story below, but the short version is that they rented us poorly maintained, very worn-out bikes that broke, then told us it was our financial responsibility to have them repaired. We rented 2 bikes for a 4-day bikepacking trip from Bari to Lecce. On pickup, they said we had a "5-minute to test the bike" period. The bikes seemed a little squeaky but appeared at that point to be working. We didn't do a close inspection and, frankly, aren't very experienced in bike maintenance (we realize we should have been more thorough and also taken pictures before accepting the bikes). The mild squeaking present initially got worse on day 2 and we noticed the rear gear hub on that bike was bowed and wobbling. Shortly after that the wheel failed completely. We were riding smoothly on roads the entire way and the bike was sized appropriately for the rider. We immediately contacted Velo Service to notify them of the malfunction (as well as when we noticed the wobbling issue earlier). They were able to provide the name of a repair shop close by but refused to pay for any part of the repair, and said if we brought the bike back early they would deduct the repair charge from our credit card. While trying to resolve the issue on the phone with them they said it was in the contract that we were responsible for any repairs that might be required after the acceptance period. In all fairness, we did not read that part of the contract, nor did we notice sign of poor bike maintenance before accepting them as we should have done. I would still say it is dishonest and in bad faith to rent out poorly maintained equipment with possible imminent malfunction, and then make it the responsibility of the customer when it breaks. I could understand having to pay for damage if you caused damage due to a crash, but this was not the case for us. The part was going to break at some point, and as the bikes are always rented out to customers, they will only ever malfunction while in customers' possession, making it their responsibility for the repairs. As a sidenote, after we returned the bicycles we received a message that there was something else broken and that they would deduct €160 more from our credit card. When I asked for pictures and a description of what was wrong, they said they "reinspected the bike and everything was fine". I would be wary of trusting this company.

reputable and professional, competent and sympathetic service. we had for a week rental bikes (good gravel bikes). the team was easily accessible via whatsapp and has supported us with problems.

Extremely friendly. Excellent bikes. Very good value. And the staff were extremely helpful especially Teresa. Puglia is a wonderful place to cycle around - beautiful coast , historic towns + amazing scenery. The cycling is not too tough. would recommend

Terrible bikes, then they wanted to give us others after I felt so uncomfortable with what they gave us. It was crowded and we chose annabfternoon tour instead but the guide spoke a poor English and it was led in both Italian and English, poor experience.

Our guide Anna was top! Her explanation was clear and well-documented. She even spoiled us with a focaccia from the best baker in Bari! The tour gives a great impression of Bari’s diversity. Ann & Kristin from Belgium

Lecce is beautiful town, unfortunately it was very hot. But very good guide (Mattia) who told us all about the buildings and the history of the city, very interesting. Also great cycling, good service, and also not unimportant, they speak good English. In short, top bike rental through Baja bikes

Booking and pickup worked great! We rode along the bike path to the beach, the wheels were fine. Service very friendly and helpful.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ What a fun afternoon with Baja Bikes! Together with friends we made a super fun bike ride through Bari led by guide Christiano – what an enthusiastic and fun guide! He talked about the city in a relaxed way and led us past beautiful places. As icing on the cake we ended with a delicious ice cream. Highly recommended to discover Bari in an active and cozy way! 🚲🍦☀️

The team is smiling, the welcome is friendly (trying to speak French). The bikes are pretty, well maintained. They come with a helmet (if you wish), a large padlock and a puncture-resistant bomb. We wanted to visit the historic center of Bari by bike, and also the seaside, but the visit to the historic center is impossible (many too many people). Access to the seaside is also complicated because you have to travel with cars before reaching it. So we brought our bikes back very quickly... It was not possible to refund me (because I had booked and paid by Tripadvisor, not live). However the contact with the team was friendly.

girls / super nice , helpful and with honest prices, a nice day on the bike to visit the beautiful Bari! I hope to return again, thanks!
