– CicloCuba mainly offers hybrid bicycles like the Specialized Sirrus, Globe, Vita and Crosstrail. Additionally, we offer Scott Speedster road bikes.
– CicloCuba doesn’t offer electric bicycles.
– The bicycles have 27 speeds, 9-speed cassettes with 3 chain rings.
– Our Specialized bikes come with 700 x 32 wheels. Scott road bikes have narrower 700 x 23 wheels. Inner tubes are mainly Presta valves and our hybrids can take up to a 38C tube.
– You can rent rear side bags (saddlebags), handlebar bags, trunk bags, Burley D’lite trailer, luggage trailer, trail a bike for children (10 – 13 years), locks, spare inner tubes, luggage storage.
– Bicycles don’t come with mirrors or any other accessories not specifically described as included with the rental.
– Our bikes come equipped with a rear carrier that will accept touring panniers, a water bottle cage (bottle not included) and we also offer helmets at no additional charge, but many guests travel with their own. We can install your personal saddle or pedals on our bikes if you prefer.
– Cell phone holder, small bottle of chain lubricant, multi-tool, spare inner tube, appropriate cycle clothing, solar protection, mosquito repellent, sunglasses, small air pump, bicycle water bottle or hydration pack, energy supplements, optional: SteriPEN or water filtration system.
– Roadside assistance is not available for independent rentals; CicloCuba only offers this service as part of Supported Independent tour packages arranged in advance. Our fleet of bicycles undergoes specialized maintenance after each rental. CicloCuba’s bicycles are high quality, and they’ve mostly been equipped with high-end tires, making them very resistant and appropriate for longer independent cycle touring journeys. In the event of a mechanical, you should have some basic mechanical skills, or be resourceful/self-sufficient enough to secure local transportation for you & your bike to return to CicloCuba for assistance in the event of a breakdown while rental equipment is under your care.
– CicloCuba only operates in Havana. For those intending to start their route in other cities such as Santiago de Cuba or Trinidad and return to Havana with the prevailing easterly winds, our advice is to pick up bicycles in Havana and then travel to your start point via the Viazul bus. The bus service requires advance booking and can only be paid online with a foreign-issued credit card. Viazul accepts bicycles for transport for a small supplement, payable locally, and will require riders to remove wheels and store the bicycle in the luggage compartment under the bus for the journey.
CicloCuba is primarily a rental outfitter.
– We offer a number of free digital maps for multiple Havana-based day excursions, with routes based on beginning/ending at CicloCuba. You’re free to modify the start/end points to your accommodation if renting while based in Havana.
-While CicloCuba doesn’t offer free tour itinerary planning services, digital maps are included with Supported Independent tour programs.
-For those planning multi-day touring outside of Havana, we highly recommend installing the offline navigation application Maps.me and downloading the Cuba map in advance to mobile phones. It’s a wonderful resource that relies on GPS technology so a) doesn’t require data and b) can be used when cell phone signals are weak/non-existent.
CicloCuba’s Vedado main rental location is closest to:
State Hotels:
Hotel Presidente
Hotel Gran Aston La Habana
Private B&B’s/boutique inns:
Elegancia Suites Havana
CicloCuba collaborates with WoWCuba to offers guaranteed prepaid hotel bookings only as part of pre-arranged Supported Independent tour programs. But our main mission is to be a quality rental outfitter, not a travel agency or travel fixer.
For those undertaking DIY trip planning we publish some bicycle-specific guide book links here to help orient visitors in advance in designing and independently planning their unsupported cycle tour itineraries & accommodations.
