Our Bicycles
At LocalRoutes, we believe the bike you use is a key component to making your cycling journey enjoyable and beyond. You need a bike that won’t just take you from your morning hotel to your evening accommodation, but one that is an absolute joy to ride. You may want to use your own bicycle on months-long bike touring trips (we would recommend so if you can), but avoiding the hassle of flying with your bike can often be a smart idea on shorter 5 to 15-day cycling tours. And again, you want great bikes, and this is what we offer!
Our bike fleet varies based on locations but is always made up of high-quality, reliable bicycles with strong components. That’s true on our cycling tours in Thailand, but also in Laos and beyond.

We provide them with all the essential on-bike gear, bottles, and can fit them with your own personal accessories on request—be it a GPS mount, your own saddle for extra comfort, or your shoe-specific pedals.
A helmet is complimentary with all our bikes, though again you might prefer to bring your own.
Our bikes come ready for the road, so you can travel light and ride carefree.
Bikes and equipment for families
In certain locations, we offer children-specific bikes and family cycling gear, like tag-along bars to tow a child for all or part of the trip, and Thule trailers for the youngest cyclists.
Check with us for details and availability.
E-Bikes
We have a small yet growing fleet of electric bikes, perfect to add comfort to your ride or to allow mixed-level groups or couples to enjoy cycling together.
They are (relatively) light and perfectly suited to our cycling itineraries.
All our e-bikes are pedal-assist and will require you to move the legs, though intensity does not matter.
Feel free to check with us to learn more.
