We are very pleased to announce a new partnership with exclusive Italian bike builder Cipollini. Few names in the cycling world are more synonymous with style, flamboyance, class and race pedigree! And the 100% Italian made BOND bikes in the PuntoTours stable are all of the above. Here's what Road Cycling UK had to say about the Bond.
“When you turn the power on, absolutely nothing is wasted before it reaches the pedals, drivetrain and, in turn, the wheels. The Bond stands out, and it has the performance to back up the flamoyancy. It's fast - possibly one of the quickest road bikes we've tested. The Bond is absolutely rock-solid.” Road Cycling UK
All our Cipollini hire bikes are fitted with Shimano Di2 electronic shifting and come with compact gearing ideally suited for the European terrain. Gearing is 34/50 and 11/32. Tyres are 25mm for extra comfort. We have no doubt you will love the Ferrari of bicycles!
BIKE HIRE
If you wish to hire a bike, simply indicate this when booking. In due course we will ask you to complete our detailed BikeFit Form, which can be downloaded from your Member Account. That way we'll ensure that the bike is set up correctly before you come on tour. PuntoTours will service the bike and ensure that it is in optimum riding condition.
Please remember to bring your own pedals and shoes, and your saddle if you can only get comfortable on yours!
Hybrid bikes and electric road bikes available on request.
IMPORTANT Note that you will be used to the brake lever operating the front brake on either the left or right hand side of the handle bars. Make sure you indicate your preference on the BikeFit Form.
Your responsibility: The bike is loaned to you in good faith that you will look after it as if it were your own. We ask that you always store the bike sensibly and lock it when unattended (a lock will be supplied). When riding your bike we ask that you don't take any unnecessary risks. We understand that accidents can happen and do not hold you responsible for any loss or damage to the bike, unless we deem that the damage or loss to your hire bike is due to your reckless behaviour.
