Renting a Bike from Olek's Radsport


While staying in Darmstadt I rented a bicycle at Olek's Radsport in Einhausen. They still rent road bikes, not just city bikes or e-bikes, although they rent both of those. 

I rented the bike for four days. The fee was 120 Euros which I paid with a credit card.  To rent the bike, I had to leave a 300 Euro cash deposit, which meant I walked to a nearby bank to get cash.   

The staff is friendly and helpful and includes an American from Seattle who is married to an American from Harrisburg.  


They have a huge inventory of bikes.  Their main business is clearly e-bikes.






They also have a tube vending machine on the wall outside. 9 Euros.
