Our Bikes

 

Bikes are made by Drag - the leading bike producer in Bulgaria. We provide lightweight alloy framed Grand Canyon TE or Cruiser TE - hybrid touring bicycles with 27 or 24 indexed gears, and flat handlebars with adjustable stem. The riding position is comfortable and upright. These are the bikes we recommend and supply for most riders. Also we have hardtail mountain bikes Ontario TE.

The bikes come in with Xerama Alloy platform pedals and Selle Royal Energy Saddle. Bring your own saddle and pedals if you wish and we will fit them to the bike. You can bring your own helmet or rent one from us.

 

 

Activity Level Classification

 

We grade our tours by difficulty levels and hope this will help our clients to choose the proper one to cope with the physical condition requirements.

 

  • Easy Cycling Tour

    Relaxed pace, mainly flat terrain and 1 or 2 days with hilly stretches. These routes are suitable for most degrees of fitness, but little cycling experience is necessary.

  • Moderate Cycling Tour

    For regular cyclists who ride often daily and sometimes take weekend trips. Half of the tour follows hilly areas and half of the routes are flat. cover mid-long distances and you have enough time for leisure, photos and sightseeing.

  • Adventurous Cycling Tour

    Some difficult days with steep climbs and predominantly hilly terrain. Few short technical sections and day distances 50-75 km. Suitable for experienced cyclist in very good condition who endure to pedal at a ‘stronger’ pace.
