Equipment

 

It is absolutely necessary for a successful bike tour to have a fully functional mountain bike. Brakes and gears must be adjusted perfectly. It is up to you whether you use a full-suspension or a hardtail mountain bike. Naturally it is best to use your own bike with which you are acquainted. You should not only bring spare tubes and a patch kit, but some other spare parts as well (e.g . brake shoes, gear hanger, etc).

 

Even in the middle of summer bad weather can occur in the Alps - even snowfall. You should be equipped accordingly: long sleeve bike clothes, gloves, and rain gear must not be missing. Sunglasses, sunscreen, a helmet, a bike bottle, and bike shoes are self-evident.

 

We have compiled packing lists for each tour. After you have booked and paid OPOLUM will send you the respective list of equipment in good time.
