Cycling Classics features Eddy Merckx bikes on all of our bicycle tours. Throughout his illustrious racing career Eddy Merckx was meticulous in the detail of his bicycles, taking the utmost pride in the fit and finish of all his equipment. As a manufacturer he retains these qualities, incorporates them with his unparalleled racing experiences, and shares them with thousands like you.

RENTALS ONLY:
We can make our bicycles available to non-tour clients on a "per request" basis. We can provide rentals at specific pickup locations throughout France. Availability will depend on demand by our tours. The peak periods in July around the Tour de France are generally not possible. Note that if you rent bikes only, special terms apply, and minimum rental is 4 days and requires at least two week notice. See the RENTAL LOCATIONS MAP at the left hand column for our locations by region. (All rates are subject to change.)
