General information:

The carrying out of the tour is dependent on weather conditions!

The E-MTB tours are demanding and therefore physical fitness and endurance are necessary.

To enjoy this trip also a proper cycle equipment like sneakers, rucksack, sun- and rain protection, comfortable sports cloths, jacket, jumper, gloves, helmet, first aid kit and enough beverages and food is mandatory. We strongly recommend taking an emergency repair kit with replacement hose and pump with you.

Battery management:

Fully charge your battery every day.

We recommend a second battery. Pay attention to your driving if you do not have a second battery – you can probably charge it occasionally.

A low gear with high pedal frequency increases your range.

An ascent with more than 14km/h in the turbo mode reduces the range significantly. It is better to use a low gear in the E-MTB or sport mode with a speed lower than 10km/h.
