SSL or TLS Encryption

For security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as orders or inquiries that you send to us as the site operator, this site uses SSL or TLS encryption.

The website operators have a legitimate interest in the storage of cookies for the technically error-free and optimised provision of their services. Insofar as other cookies (e.g. cookies for analysing your surfing behaviour) are stored, these are treated separately in this data protection declaration.

Example "best price option":
If the bike is used for 1 hour, €2.50 will be charged. If the time limit is exceeded, the rental is always extended by an additional hour at €2.50 per hour. The system always calculates and compares the "best price option" based on the tariffs and finally charges the customer the lower price.
Example:
If the bike is used for up to 2 hours, €5 will be charged.
If the bike is used for up to 3 hours, €6 will be charged (best price option = tariff with 3 hours at €6).
