Our range of Road Bikes for rent in the Las Palmas Bikestation 24 is dedicated to the mountainous landscape of Gran Canaria, where larger flat sections are a rare exception. Thatswhy we still do not offer aero bikes with aerodynamic frames like the Merida Reacto. The most appreciated and so far most asked road bike types are sportive bikes and race bikes Merida RIDE 400 and 4000, the SCULTURA 5000 and our newly aquired KTM REVELATOR 4000 road race bikes.
As our rental bikes are dedicated to all audiences in relation to fitness and skills, they are equipped with a compact chainset of 50-34 and a 11-28 or 11-32 cassette for the steep climbs. All our road bikes are fitted with 2 bottle holders, pump, extra tube. We keep ready the most common pedal systems like Shimano SPD, SPD SL and KEO Look, their installation is without extra cost.

Road Bike Routes arround Las Palmas de Gran Canaria
Only the the 10 km long bike lane along the Port of Las Palmas is a flat section – all other road bike routes demand some fitness for climbs of arround 600 meters to the Village of Terror or the Bandama Crater as popular waypoints. The very skilled riders reach the highest mountain Pico de las Nieves with 1950 m in arround 3 hours. There are generally 3 main routes leading out of the city of Las Palmas:
- climb up from old town Vegueta to Tafira
- climb up from west end Guanarteme to Las Torres and Tamaraceite
- leaving the City on the GC-2 highway westwards along the north coast
